Configuration through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

Configuration through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Configuring Digi devices through Simple Network Management protocol uses a subset of standard
MIBs for network and serial configuration, plus several Digi enterprise MIBs for device
identification and alarm handling. These MIBs are listed and described on page 153, and must be
loaded into a network management station (NMS). The standard and Digi Enterprise MIBs allow
for very basic network and serial configuration. For more detailed configuration settings, use the
command-line interface or web interface instead.
Some elements of SNMP configuration can only be configured from the web interface or
command line, such as the setting to send alarms as SNMP traps. In the web interface, this setting
is located at Configuration > Alarms > alarm > Alarm Destinations > Send SNMP trap to
following destination when alarm occurs. See "Alarms" on page 146. In the command-line
interface, this setting is configured by the set alarm option type=snmptrap. See the set alarm
command description in the Connect Family Command Reference.
For information on SNMP as a monitoring interface, see page 209.
Batch capabilities for configuring multiple devices
For configuring many Digi devices at a time, batch configuration capabilities for uploading
configuration files are available through the Digi Connect Programmer. For details and command
descriptions, see the Digi Connect Family Customization and Integration Guide.
