About SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an internet standard protocol for collecting and organizing information about managed devices on IP networks and for modifying that information to change device behaviour. In general a SNMP management suite (running on a server) communicates with an SNMP agent (running on the device). The SNMP agent collects and exposes device information in the form of variables according a MIB (Management Information Base). SNMP management suites will be able to approach ClickShare devices via SNMP protocol for requesting device information.

SNMPv3 is supported.

How to enable

   • Alarm Case Fan Speed trap which indicates the case fan is spinning too slow.
   • Alarm Process Not Running trap which indicates one of the monitored processes is not running.

4. Enter a new password and confirm that password.
