AXIS 1650 User’s Manual Print Server Management and Configuration
Print Server Management Using SNMP
You can use SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for remotely monitoring and
configuring the AXIS 1650. All major functions for print servers are supported.
General Information
SNMP refers to a set of standards for network management, including a protocol, a database
structure specification, and a set of data objects. The AXIS 1650 SNMP implementation runs in
TCP/IP networks.
The management is handled by NMS (Network Management System) software running on a
host on your network. The NMS software communicates with network devices by the means of
messages, which are references to one or more objects.
A message can be a question or an instruction to a device, or an alarm triggered by a specific
event in a device. Objects are contained in data bases called MIBs (Management Information
Base), where MIB-II is a standard database.
The AXIS 1650 supports the following MIBs:
• relevant parts of MIB-II
• relevant parts of the Host Resource MIB
• relevant parts of the Printer MIB
• relevant parts of the CANON-MIB
