SNMP

The Simple Network Manag ement Protocol (SNMP) allows remote manag ement of network devices. An SNMP community is the

group of devices and management station running SNMP. Community names are used to identify groups.

The Axis product can be conﬁgured to s upport SNMP on the System Options > Network > SNMP page.

Depending on the level of security required, select the version on SNMP to use.

SNMP v1/v2 provides the lowest level of security. The community name can be speciﬁed as a password for read or read/write

access to all supported SNMP devices. The default password for the Read community is public and the default password for the

Write community is write.

Note

If HTTPS is e nabled, SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c should be disab led.

Traps for SNMP v1/v2 are used by the Axis product to send messages to a management system on important events and status

changes. Check Enable traps and enter the IP address where the trap message should be sent and the Trap community that

should receive the m essage.

The following traps are a v ailable:

•Coldstart

•Warmstart

•Linkup

• Authentication failed

SNMP v3 provides encryption and secure passwords. To use traps with SNMP v3, an SNMP v3 management application is required.

To use SNMP v3, HTTPS must be enabled, see

HTTPS, on page 31

. To enable SNMP v3, check the box and provide the initial user

password.
