JP1 Version 12 Network Management: Getting Started


1.5.3 Setting up ESA (for Windows)

If the Monitoring Agent is to run on Windows, set the community name and the trap destination for the Windows SNMP service.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Setting the community name for the Windows SNMP service

The community name is a password for accessing the MIB object by using the SNMP protocol. To collect resources or to monitor processes and services, you need to match the community names of the Monitoring Agent and the Monitoring Manager. To set the community name, from the Windows Services window, display the SNMP Service properties, and then set the name. For details, see the Windows documentation.

(2) Setting the trap destination for the Windows SNMP service

The trap destination determines where SNMP traps should be sent, and is used to check the manager that receives Monitoring Agent traps. If you want to send traps to the Monitoring Manager, you need to use the Monitoring Agent to set the trap destination.

Procedure

  1. From the Windows Services window, display the SNMP Service properties, and then set the trap destination.

    For details, see the Windows documentation.

Next, specify settings for monitoring the network by using the JP1 network management products.
