Chapter 4 – Configuring Your MultiVOIP
MultiVOIP® Voice/Fax over IP Gateways 65
Configuring SNMP
If you want to manage your MultiVOIP remotely using the MultiVoipManager software, set the Simple Network
Management Protocol parameters. To make the MultiVOIP controllable by a remote PC running the
MultiVoipManager software, check the Enable SNMP Agent checkbox on the SNMP Parameters window.
The –SS and –FX series MultiVOIPs have limited SNMP functions available. If this is something you want to use on
those models, contact Multi-Tech support for assistance.
The table that follows describes the SNMP Parameter fields.
