Product(s): Appliances (7.4.3)

Platform: Veritas 3340,Access Appliance OS

Name

Main > Settings > Alerts > SNMP — Add SNMP information on your appliance that enables the host to send SNMP notifications for monitoring.

SYNOPSIS

SNMP Clear

SNMP Disable

SNMP Enable

SNMP Set Server [Community] [Port]

SNMP Show

SNMP ShowMIB

DESCRIPTION

The Access Appliance uses the SNMPv2-SMI or the SNMPv3-SMI application protocol to monitor the appliance node. Use this command to add or change SNMP parameters on the server. You can use the following commands to display the current parameters and the changes that were made to the SNMP information. You can use this command to enable and disable SNMP notifications for appliance monitoring.

When you create and enable an SNMP community you enable appliance monitoring to occur on the appliance node through the SNMP protocol. Notifications or traps are programmed to occur on the appliance node. In addition, you can use this command to see the notification traps that have been configured for the appliance node.

OPTIONS

SNMP Clear: Clears all of the previously stored SNMP settings.

SNMP Disable: Disables the ability to send SNMP notifications (traps) for monitoring.

SNMP Enable [version]

Enable the ability to send SNMP version 2 notifications (traps) for monitoring.

Enable the ability to send SNMP version 3 notifications (traps) for monitoring.

SNMP Set Community Server [Port] Security

Community

Sets the SNMP Community string. The default setting is public. This setting is required for SNMP V2, and is optional for SNMP V3.

Server [Port]

Sets the SNMP server name and the port assignment. The default setting is 162.

Note:

Access Appliance supports all of the SNMP servers in the market. However, the ManageEngine™ SNMP server and the HP OpenView SNMP server are tested and certified.

Security

Lets you configure the following security parameters when SNMP version 3 is enabled:

noAuthNoPriv [Username]
Sets the security level to no authentication and no privileges for a specific SNMP user.
AuthNoPriv [Username] [Authentication Protocol] [Authentication Password]
Sets the security level to authentication with no privileges for a specific SNMP user. Authentication Protocol can be set to SHA256 or SHA512. An Authentication Password is required.
AuthPriv [Username] [Authentication Protocol] [Encryption Policy] [Authentication Password] [Encryption Passphrase]
Sets the security level to authentication with privileges for a specific SNMP user. Authentication Protocol can be set to SHA256 or SHA512. Encryption Policy can be set to AES128, AES192, or AES256. An Authentication Password and an Encryption Passphrase are required.
Rules for Username, Authentication Password, and Encryption Passphrase:
- Username can have 1-32 characters.
  Authentication Password and Encryption Passphrase must have 8 or more characters.
- Username, passwords, and passphrases may include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and the following punctuation marks: period, hyphen/dash, underscore.
- Spaces, commas, and special characters are not allowed.

SNMP Show: Displays the parameters that are set after you have run an SNMP Set Server command. If you run this command before you have run a SNMP Set Server command, then default values for [Community] and [Port] are displayed and no value is displayed for Server.

SNMP ShowMIB: Display the contents of the Management Information Base (MIB) file. This file contains the notification traps that are configured to monitor the appliance.

EXAMPLES

You can use either of the following methods to configure a public SNMP community on port 8080. The example uses the [Community] and [Port] options.

abc123.Alerts> SNMP Set pqr222.xyz.com public 8080
Successfully set SNMP manager

When you run the Settings> Alerts > SNMP ShowMIB command, an output similar to the following is displayed.
