Overview
SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is the standard protocol for
managing devices on a network. The Falcon Management Utility (FMU)
makes use of SNMP to send and receive configuration information to the Dat-
alogic Mobile terminals. Since the networked terminals are constantly running
SNMP, this allows FMU to interface with the terminal at any time, without
requiring user intervention on the terminal.
With SNMP running on the terminal, other SNMP based network manage-
ment tools such as HP Openview

and CastleRock SNMPpc
®
may also be
used to interface with the terminals. To support this capability, Datalogic has

them to better support the configuration values provided on the terminals,
such as scanner controls and terminal type information.
The MIB is avail
