Configuration through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Configuring ConnectPort LTS products through Simple Network Management protocol uses a
subset of standard MIBs for network and serial configuration, plus several Digi enterprise MIBs for
device identification, alarm handling and ConnectPort LTS products specific configurations. These
MIBs are listed and described under “Configuration Interfaces,” 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.” In the command-line interface, this setting is
configured by the set alarm option type=snmptrap. See the set alarm command description in the
ConnectPort LTS Command Reference.

information on SNMP as a monitoring interface, see “Monitoring Capabilities from SNMP.”
