Configuring SNMP
-
From our myelux.com portal, under eLux Software Packages, for your eLux version, under Add-On, download the package SNMP Environment and deploy it to the devices.
-
If there is no
/setup/snmp/snmpd.conf
on the devices, transfer the configuration filesnmpd.conf
to the devices to/setup/snmp/snmpd.conf
by using the Scout feature Files configured for transferOr:
Modify the terminal.ini file by using the Adding individual file entries feature of Scout. Example:
File /setup/terminal.ini Section SNMPD Entry rocommunity Value secret -
Optionally, to define further SNMPD and SNMP Configuration Directives feature and modify the
terminal.ini file
under SNMPD. Examples:syscontact=[contact@sampletec.com] syslocation=testcenter doDebugging=1
For further information on SNMPD Configuration Directives, see http://www.net-snmp.org.
The section SNMPD of the terminal.ini
file is evaluated by the client and the file /setup/snmp/snmpd.local.conf
is created. An existing /setup/snmp/snmpd.conf
will be overwritten.
If the configuration file does not exist, the file /setup/snmp/snmpd.local.conf
is created with default values.

as the authentication method.
