1 Matrix Technical Support Mailer 159 SNMP configuration in ETERNITY Dear Friends, This mailer tells us how to configure SNMP in Matrix ETERNITY. In this MTSM we will see the procedure to configure different SNMP parameters. Introduction: Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a standard protocol used to manage devices on IP network The SNMP architecture mainly consists of three key components: 1. SNMP Agent: Already provided built in with Matrix ETERNITY 2. SNMP Manager: Monitor and control managed devices. It generates SNMP requests and receives SNMP responses 3. Management Information Base (MIB): It is a commonly shared database between the agent and the manager The version and revision of the ETERNITY system must be V12R1 and above for SNMP to work SNMP uses UDP (User Datagram Protocol) as the transport protocol for passing information between managers and agents. The agent listens on UDP port 161 for requests from manager and manager listens on UDP port 162 for notification from agent SNMP version supported on Matrix ETERNITY: 1. SNMPv1 2. SNMPv2c 3. SNMPv3 Here we have shown SNMP configuration for all 3 protocols. However, you can use either of the three protocols

2 SNMP manager installation: Here we will use SNMPB software as an SNMP manager. It is open source software so you can download and use the software free of charge: Download link: Install the software in your PC after download and open it. Click on shortcut on desktop to open software SNMPB software opened

3 Download MIB file from Jeeves under maintenance SNMP Save MIB file into PC at desired location Open Downloaded MATRIX-ETERNITY- MIB.txt file in notepad

4 Select the entire content of Notepad file and Copy it Go to Editor Tab and in Loaded MIB file field right click and select paste

5 Once pasted click on File save MIB Provide File name shown below and click on save button

6 You will find the same file in loaded MIB modules under modules tab If the file is not available in the Loaded MIB modules than user can transfer the file from available MIB modules to Loaded MIB modules with - > button In Tree option and under enterprises menu now you should find matrixtelecom option

7 Configuration: 1. SNMPv1 Enable SNMP Default SNMP listening port Select SNMP versionv1 Define community name Mandatory field: Community name Whatever community name configured in Matrix ETERNITY, the same should be configured in SNMP manager as well. Click Options Manage Agent Profiles

8 Default Agent profile localhost Define profile name Define IP address of Agent (Matrix ETERNITY) Define listening port of agent Select SNMPV1 Protocol Click OK

9 Click Snmpv1/v2c Set test as Read and write community (same as ETERNITY) Click OK

10 2. SNMPv2c Enable SNMP Default SNMP listening port Select SNMP versionv2c Define community name Mandatory field: Community name Whatever community name configured in Matrix ETERNITY, the same should be configured in SNMP manager as well. Click Options Manage Agent Profiles

11 Default agent profile localhost Define profile name Define IP address of Agent (Matrix ETERNITY) Define listening port of agent Select SNMPV2 Protocol Click OK

12 Click Snmpv1/v2c Set test as Read and write community (same as ETERNITY) Click OK

13 3. SNMPv3 Enable SNMP Default SNMP listening port Select SNMP version v3 System s Engine ID which is to be configured in SNMPB User name hello which is also to be configured in SNMPB software Select security type from drop down menu and set the same in SNMPB software Mandatory field: System s Engine ID, User name and security type Here df03 is an enterprise number and will remain fixed followed by MAC address of device (network port).

14 Click Options Manage SNMPv3 USM Profiles Right click here and select new USM profile

15 Program security user name as hello Select authentication and privacy protocol as none (same as ETERNITY) Click Options Manage Agent Profiles

16 Default agent profile localhost Define profile name Define IP address of Agent (Matrix ETERNITY) Define listening port of agent Select SNMPV3 Protocol Click OK

17 Click SnmpV3 Browse security name (hello) & security level (noauthnopriv) Program Engine ID same as given in ETERNITY

18 Notification Settings: Enable Notification if you want ETERNITY to generate notification message for an error Click to send test notification Program IP address of PC/server on which SNMP manager is installed followed by port number Set notification filters

19 Right click on networkstaus and click on Get Bulk option You will get the response from ETERNITY in reply to Get Bulk request
