Logging In Through Snmp; Configuring Snmp Login; Prerequisites; Configuring Snmpv3 Settings - HP 830 Series Configuration Manual

Logging in through SNMP

You can run SNMP on an NMS to access the device MIB and perform GET and SET operations to
manage and monitor the device. The device supports SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3, and can work
with various network management software products, including IMC. For more information about SNMP,
see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.
By default, SNMP access is disabled. To enable SNMP access, log in to the device through any other
method, and configure SNMP login.

Configuring SNMP login

Connect the PC (the NMS) and the device to the network, making sure they can reach each other, as
shown in Figure
device.

For SNMP to operate correctly, make sure the SNMP settings (including the SNMP version) on the NMS
are consistent with those on the device.
