This topic provides information about controlling the SNMP service
on the Message Networking system. From this page you can start the
SNMP service, you can enable the SNMP service so that it automatically
restarts whenever the system is rebooted, and you can disable the
SNMP service so that it does not automatically restart when the
system is rebooted. The SNMP service allows queries from remote
network management stations (NMSs) via SNMP.
The other SNMP service used by Message Networking is SNMPTRAPD.
You can view the status of this service from the SNMP Service Control
page, but whether the service is running depends on the setting
of the Acknowledgement
Type field on the Alarm Management page.
Note: SNMP is a service of the Linux operating
system. As long as the SNMP service is enabled on the Message Networking
system, SNMP is available even if Message Networking is disabled
or not running.
To control the SNMP service:
- Start at the Administration menu, and select Basic System
Administration > SNMP Administration > SNMP
Service Control.
The system displays the SNMP Service Control page.
- In the Select a Service field, select one of the available options:
- Stop SNMP Service: Select this option to
stop the SNMP service.
- Start SNMP Service: Select this option
to start the SNMP service.
- Restart SNMP Service: Select this option
to restart the SNMP service.
- Enable SNMP Service: Select this option
if you want the SNMP service to automatically restart when
the system is rebooted.
- Disable SNMP Service: Select this option
if you do not want the SNMP service to automatically restart
when the system is rebooted.
You can click the field names or click Help on the Web-based
administration page to view more information.
- Click Invoke Service.
If you stop, start, or enable the service, the system prompts
whether you really want to make the requested service change.
- Click OK to confirm the change.
If you selected stop, start, or enable, the system displays a
message confirming the service change.
- Click Back to return to the SNMP Administration page,
or click Return to Main to return to the Administration
menu.
