SNMP Monitoring
Traps
In addition to reporting the status of subsystems, the Encore System Con-
troller SNMP Agent generates alarm messages, called Traps. The Traps are
sent to all registered SNMP Managers when there is a failure detected in
any of the subsystems. Similarly, Traps are generated by the System Con
-
troller for the corresponding subsystem when the subsystems returns to a
normal state.
An Encore SCB sends notification messages to an SNMP Manager PC con-
figured as a trap target regardless of which network the PC is connected to,
either EN1 or EN2 of the Encore network. Connecting the PC to EN1 is rec
-
ommended to avoid possible excessive message traffic on EN2 that could
affect Encore system performance.
See SNMP Trap Messages on page 100 for specific trap information.
SNMP Agent Licensing
The SNMP Agent is an optional component, and is licensed separately. The
default for the SNMP Agent is Disabled. The License Key is needed to acti
-
vate the SNMP Agent, and is obtained from Customer Support. You will be
asked to send the Device ID. In systems with redundant System Controllers
a unique License Key must be obtained for each controller.
SNMP License Key
To obtain the Device ID and enter the License Key you will need to open
the Product Web Access windows for the System Controller you want to
enable. If you know the IP Address of the System Controller you can enter
it in a Web browser. If you do not know the IP Address or you want to see
more than one System Controller use the Thomson Grass Valley utility
application, NetConfig.
1. Open the Product Web Access window for a System Controller.
Native Protocol/
RCL Client
Client ID to uniquely identify the client, Client Name, such as M2100, Kalypso, or Encoda,
Client IP Address / Serial Port of System Controller,
Client Status, values are: Active or Disconnected, and
Total Client Connection (number of Ethernet clients connected).
Status and events of NP/RCL clients. Event includes disconnect and re-connect of Ethernet cli-
ents from a specific IP address. Disconnect event is sent when all the clients connections from
a specific IP address are closed.”
