anything.
4. Click Apply.
The configuration file is restored according to the selection that you made, and the

Manage Remote Access
Enable SNMP to allow SNMP network management software, such as HP OpenView, to
monitor the wireless controller by using SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c protocol.
You can configure the wireless controller through SNMP, except for the following features:
• Guest access management
• RF management
Note: The wireless controller supports SSH through the console port.
However, the console port is for debugging under guidance of
NETGEAR technical support only.
