Configuring SNMP

September 7, 2025

Contributed by:

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 onthe devices, transfer the configuration file snmpd.conf to the devices to /setup/snmp/snmpd.conf by using the Scout feature advanced_files Files configured for transfer

Or:

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, use the Adding individual file entries 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, overwriting any existing /setup/snmp/snmpd.conf.

If the configuration file does not exist, the file /setup/snmp/snmpd.local.conf is created with default values.

Notes on configuring SNMP v3

When you define users (createUser), set a password with at least 8 characters.
For the authentication method, define authPriv or authNoPriv.

Note:

For SNMP v2, you can use noAuthNoPriv as the authentication method.
