Configuring the SNMP Agent
Server Administrator supports the Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP)—a systems management standard—on all supported operating
systems. The SNMP support may or may not be installed depending on your
operating system and how the operating system was installed. In most cases,
SNMP is installed as part of your operating system installation. An installed
supported systems management protocol standard, such as SNMP, is required
before installing Server Administrator.
You can configure the SNMP agent to change the community name, enable
Set operations, and send traps to a management station. To configure your
SNMP agent for proper interaction with management applications such as
the Dell OpenManage IT Assistant, perform the procedures described in the
following sections.
NOTE: The default SNMP agent configuration usually includes a SNMP community
name such as public. For security reasons, change the SNMP community names
from their default values. For information about changing SNMP community names,
see the appropriate section below.
NOTE: SNMP Set operations are disabled by default in Server Administrator
version 5.2 or later. Server Administrator provides support to enable or disable
SNMP Set operations in Server Administrator. You can use the Server Administrator
SNMP Configuration page under Preferences or the Server Administrator
