Setting up SNMP
The Summit WM-Series Switch Software system supports Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP), Version 1 and 2c, for retrieving Summit WM-Series Switch statistics and configuration
information.
Simple Network Management Protocol, a set of protocols for managing complex networks, sends
messages, called protocol data units (PDUs), to different parts of a network. Devices on the network
that are SNMP-compliant, called agents, store data about themselves in Management Information Bases
(MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.
MIB support
The Summit WM-Series Switch Software system accepts SNMP “Get” commands and generates “Trap”
messages. Support is provided for the retrieval information from the router MIB-II (SNMP_GET) as well
as SNMP traps, and for the retrieval of wireless information from the 802.11 MIB.
For MIB-II (RFC1213), the following groups for the router characteristics of the Summit WM-Series
Switch are supported:
● System Group
● Interfaces Group
● Address Translation Group
● IP Group
● ICMP Group
● TCP Group
● UDP Group
NOTE
Because of limitations in data captured in the control / data planes, MIB II compliance is incomplete. For example,
esa/IXP ports can only provide the interface statistics.
For the 802.11 MIB (IEEE 802.11 standard), the following are supported:
● IANAif Type-MIB
● IF-MIB
● INET-ADDRESS-MIB
● IP-FORWARD-MIB
● SNMPv2-MIB
● SNMPv2-SMI
● SNMPv2-TC
The Extreme Enterprise MIB includes:
● EXTREME-BM-MIB
● EXTREME-PRODUCTS-MIB
