3.3 Configuring communications
This section explains the following:
-
Configuring SNMP proxy settings
-
Using NETCONF for device support
After reading the information in this section, see Configuring Communication Protocol in NNMi Help for specific procedures.
- Reference note
-
It is a good idea to save a copy of the existing configuration before you make any major configuration changes. For details, see 2.2 Best practice: Save the existing configuration.
Configure the following areas of communication:
-
Default settings
-
Region definitions and their settings
-
Specific node settings
For specific nodes, you can enter node settings through the NNMi console or through a configuration file.
Save and Close all Communication Configuration forms all of the way back to the NNMi console to implement your changes.
- Tip
-
Double-check the ordering numbers for the defined regions. If a node qualifies for membership in multiple regions, NNMi applies to that node the settings from the region with the lowest ordering number.
