Enabling and Disabling SNMP Authentication Traps 3
Administrators can enable or disable SNMP authentication traps. When
the library receives an SNMP message that does not contain the correct
community string or other authentication information, the library sends
an SNMP authentication trap message to registered remote management
systems, indicating the authentication failure. SNMP authentication traps
are disabled by default.
See the Scalar i500 Basic SNMP Reference Guide (6-01370-xx) for further
configuration and access details.
You cannot enable or disable SNMP authentication traps from the
operator panel. The path to open the appropriate screen is as follows:
• From the Web client select
Setup > Network Management > SNMP.
Downloading the SNMP MIB
3
The library supports an SNMP MIB that can be used to integrate the
library with commercial SNMP management applications. The MIB can
be queried to obtain the status of the library and many of its individual
components. Administrators can download the SNMP MIB from the
library. The MIB can then be installed on an SNMP external management
application.
For more information about the library MIB, see the Scalar i500 Basic
SNMP Reference Guide(6-01370-xx) or contact Quantum Technical Support
(see Getting More Information or Help
on page 8). For information on
integrating MIBs with an SNMP management application, contact your
network management application vendor.
You cannot download the SNMP MIB from the operator panel. The path
to open the appropriate screen is as follows:
• From the Web client select
Tools > Download SNMP MIB.
Note: The SNMP MIB is also available on the Scalar i500
Documentation and Training CD.
