Configuring SNMP

1. 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.

2. If there is no /setup/snmp/snmpd.conf on the devices, transfer the configuration file snmpd.conf to the devices to /setup/snmp/snmpd.conf by using the Scout feature 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

3. 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. 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.

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.

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