Detailed description

Describe the system contact using an ASCII character string after the contact: label.

The maximum length is 255 characters.

location: system-location

Describe the system location using an ASCII character string after the location: label.

The maximum length is 255 characters.

get-community-name: get-community-name options

Describe the get community name of SNMP Agent using an ASCII character string.

Match this get community name to the get community name of the SNMP manager.

You can specify multiple get community names by adding lines.

  • get-community-name

    This is the password for GetRequest.

  • options

    You can specify IP: or VIEW: as an option.

    If you omit both options, the community name permits access requests from any IP address. In addition, you can access any MIB supported by SNMP Agent.

    IP:

    The community name specified in the SNMP request restricts the IP addresses that can access MIBs. When you specify IP addresses that can access MIBs, separate each address with a space. No host name is allowed. Place at least one space between the community name and IP:, and at least one space between IP: and the IP address.

    VIEW:

    The specified community name restricts accessible MIBs. Specify object IDs representing accessible subtrees (1.3.6.1.2.1 for mib-2, for example), separated by a space. If you add a hyphen (-) before an object ID, the subtree represented by the object ID will be inaccessible. Place at least one space between the community name and VIEW:, and at least one space between VIEW: and the object ID. Also, place one space before a hyphen (-).

set-community-name: set-community-name options

Describe the set community name of SNMP Agent using an ASCII character string.

Match this set community name to the set community name of the SNMP manager.

You can specify multiple set community names by adding lines.

  • set-community-name

    This is the password for both GetRequest and SetRequest.

  • options

    See options for get-community-name:.

trap-dest:
  • IPv4 trap destination

    To send a trap to NNMi or a desired manager, specify a trap destination. Enter the host name or IP address of the manager to which you want SNMP Agent to send IPv4 traps.
