The VAX-C transmitter family supports monitoring and alarming functionality via
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). Basic control of the equipment is
possible after activation in the equipment. SNMP versions V1 and V2c and V3 are

connectivity. The information contained here is not meant to teach networking or how
to setup/operate a network manager application, but merely provide the information
necessary for a network administrator to connect and operate the VAX-C transmitter
using the SNMP connection.
