SNMP Settings
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information
between network devices and is used by network administrators to manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for
network growth.
On Quadro, SNMP agent is running to allow administrators to remotely manage Quadro’s network and the device’s configuration. Remote
administration is being performed by means of special SNMP monitoring programs (SNMP Manager), which can automatically feedback by the
certainly configured actions on some events on the Quadro or remotely modify Quadro’s settings.
SNMP Settings page is divided into two pages: Global SNMP Settings and SNMP Trap Settings.
Global SNMP Settings are used to enable the SNMP agent on the Quadro, to select the SNMP protocol version for communication with the
administrating application and to define the community for administrating application to connect the Quadro.
Enable SNMP checkbox is used to enable SNMP agent on the Quadro.
System Location text field requires optional information to describe the network where SNMP management is performed.
System Contact text field requires optional information about
the contact person responsible for the SNMP management in
the defined network. Field may indicate the point person’s name,
email address, phone number or other contact information.
Enable SNMP v1 / 2c checkbox is used to enable SNMP v1/2c
protocol version for the messaging between Quadro’s SNMP
agent and the administrating application. If this checkbox is not
selected, SNMP v1 will be implied.
SNMP v1 / v2c Read-Only Community text field is used to
insert the community description (public, private, etc.) for the
read-only management (like gathering information (events,
statistics, etc.) about Quadro’s). Field may contain some kind of
password which should be matching both on Quadro and on the
administrating application for successful SNMP management.
Enable SNMP v1 / 2c Read-Write Access checkbox
additionally enables a read-write access on the Quadro for the
SNMP monitoring application. With this checkbox enabled,
administrator will be able to remotely configure the Quadro via
SNMP administrating program.
SNMP v1 / v2c Read-Write Community text field is used to
insert the community description (public, private, etc.) for the
read-write management (like gathering information (events,
statistics, etc.) about Quadro’s and remotely changing Quadro’s
configuration). Field may contain some kind of password which
should be matching both on Quadro and on the administrating
application for successful SNMP management.

The Service Restart button restarts the SNMP sub-system on the Quadro. Restarting the SNMP sub-system is recommended if it does not respond
to a SNMP manager's requests.
SNMP Trap Settings are used to define the traphosts that
should be informed when certain events occur on the Quadro.
For the listed traphosts to be informed about the events on the
Quadro, Send SNMP Trap action should be configured for the
corresponding event(s) from the
page.
SNMP Trap Settings page contains a list of all configured
traphosts with the referring information.
