SNMP Agent Configuration

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), defined in STD 15, RFC 1157, is a protocol governing the
management and the monitoring of IP network devices and their functions. The DI-1162/DI-1162M supports the
use of SNMP to acknowledge communication between management stations and itself. Basically, the DI-1162/DI-
1162M, when connected to the network, acts as an SNMP agent, a software process that responds to queries using
SNMP to provide status and statistics about the router.

Following is a description of how to configure the DI-1162/DI-1162M for SNMP management.

The parameters you can set is described below:

SNMP Authenticated Trap – You can Enable or Disable an authentication failure trap message being sent to

the Management Station by the router. When an SNMP packet with an invalid community name is received, it
will be dropped. If this parameter is enabled, a trap will be sent to the network manager; if this parameter is
disabled, no trap will be sent.
