SNMP Setting

The SNMP Setting item displays the SNMP configuration page.

SNMP provides an easy way to manage network devices. The main features are:

1. Monitoring device uptime

2. System detail description. (Ex: model name, model description and firmware version.)

3. Collect interface information. (Ex: MAC address, interface speed, local port.)

4. Measuring network interface throughput.

To use SNMP, just enable SNMP function in the camera (SNMP agents) and run SNMP

management software in server (NMS: Network Management Station) to connect to the devices.

The SNMP agent supports versions V1, V2 and V3. SNMP V1 is the initial implementation of

SNMP. SNMP V2 is proposed to enhance the performance of management, such as the

communication of server and devices, the confirmation of information delivery and receipt.

Primary additions in SNMP V3 concern security and remote configuration enhancements.

SNMP V1/V2 uses “Community” name as password to authenticate identity. “Read Community”

is the password for server to get information from devices. “Write Community” is the password for

server to edit values on devices. The default is “public” for Read Community and “write” for Write

Community. Of course, you can set any other password as your read/write community.

You can enable V1, V2 or both. Click “Apply” after you’ve completed setup.
