Configuring Event Management - Settings

SNMP Configuration

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol governing

network management and the monitoring of network devices and their

functions. The KX II-101 offers SNMP Agent support through Event

Management.

To configure SNMP (enable SNMP logging):

1. Choose Device Settings > Event Management - Settings. The Event

Management - Settings page appears.

2. Select SNMP Logging Enabled. This enables the remaining SNMP

fields.

3. In the Name, Contact, and Location fields, type the SNMP agent's

name (that is, the device's name) as it appears in the KX II-101

Console interface, a contact name related to this device, and where

the Dominion device is physically located.

4. Type the Agent Community String (the device's string). An SNMP

community is the group to which devices and management stations

running SNMP belong. It helps define where information is sent. The

community name is used to identify the group. The SNMP device or

agent may belong to more than one SNMP community.

5. Specify whether the community is Read-Only or Read/Write using

the Type drop-down list.

6. Configure up to five SNMP managers by specifying their Destination

IP/Host Name, Port #, and Community.

the SNMP Management Information Base.

To configure the Syslog (enable Syslog forwarding):

1. Select Enable Syslog Forwarding to log the device's messages to a

remote Syslog server.

2. Type the IP Address/Host Name of your Syslog server in the IP

Address field.

3. Click OK.
