Configuring modules for SNMP access
Cambium modules provide the following Configuration web page parameters in the SNMP tab. These
govern SNMP access from the manager to the agent:
Community String, which specifies the password for security between managers and the agent.
Accessing Subnet, which specifies the subnet mask that allows managers to poll the agents.
Cambium modules can also be configured to send traps to specified IP addresses (SNMP trap receiver
servers), The parameter for this address is named Trap Address.
Interface designations in SNMP
SNMP identifies the ports of the module as follows:
Interface 1 represents the Ethernet interface of the module. To monitor the status of Interface 1 is
to monitor the traffic on the Ethernet interface.
Interface 2 represents the RF interface of the module. To monitor the status of Interface 2 is to
monitor the traffic on the RF interface.
These interfaces can be viewed on the NMS through definitions that are provided in the standard MIB
files.
Traps provided in the Cambium Enterprise MIB
Cambium modules provide the following SNMP traps for automatic notifications to the NMS:
coldStart, which signals that the SNMPv2 element is reinitializing itself and that its configuration
may have been altered.
warmStart, which signals that the SNMPv2 element is reinitializing such that its configuration is
unaltered.
authenticationFailure, which signals that the SNMPv2 element has received a protocol message
that is not properly authenticated (contingent on the snmpEnableAuthenTraps object setting).
linkDown, as defined in RFC 1573
linkUp, as defined in RFC 1573
egpNeighborLoss, as defined in RFC 1213
whispGPSInSync, which signals a transition from not synchronized to synchronized.
whispGPSOutSync, which signals a transition from synchronized to not synchronized.
whispRegComplete, which signals registration completed.
whispRegLost, which signals registration lost.
