SNMP
This section provides installation and setup information for the ViewCast SNMP agent service. This
release supports SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c. SNMP v3 will be supported in future releases.
It is assumed that the SNMP agent service will be installed and run in the Niagara® system on Windows 7
platform.
In order for SNMP agent in the system to function fully, you need to install and run the following
services:
Native Windows SNMP service
Supero Doctor III agent service (also called SuperMicro Health Assistant Service)
SNMP agent service
The native Windows SNMP service implements standard MIB functions such as those defined in
RFC1213-MIB, HOST-RESOURCES-MIB including IP address table, interface table (MAC addresses) and
traps of cold start, interface link up, link down, etc.
The Supero Doctor III SNMPagent service is a third-party SNMP agent provided by Super Micro
Computer to monitor the health of system devices, such as fan speed, CPU temperature, system
temperature, etc.
The ViewCast SNMP Agent service will run as the master SNMP agent in the system. It will not only
implement ViewCast private MIBs as listed below, but also provide proxy functions to relay SNMP
requests/responses associated with those objects managed by other SNMP sub-agents.
The private MIBs include VIEWCAST-AVENCODER-MIB and VIEWCAST-AVENCODER-TRAP-
MIB, etc.
IMPORTANT! In the current release, while running ViewCast SNMP agent service, it is
recommended that you
Disable
the IIS (Internet Information Services) logging for ViewCast
Encoders Web Service. This action avoids space being filled by IIS log files (see
Disable IIS
Logging for ViewCast Encoders Web Service)
.
You need to enable monitoring for the associated devices on which SNMP traps are expected
in case the device parameter is out of the pre-defined range. In the current release, health
monitoring related SNMP traps are only available for devices such as fan speed, CPU
temperature, and system temperature (see
Install and Configure Supero Doctor III Agent
Service
.)
External SNMP Manager
With ViewCast SNMP agent enabled in each Niagara system, you can start a single SNMP manager at a
central location to manage one or multiple systems at the same time.
The external SNMP manager could be a GUI-based commercial or free application tool or an SNMP
scripting tool. The SNMP manager is your choice.
