Forcing a connection using SNMP 
To force a connection using SNMP, the access rights that apply to SNMP control are assigned to a 
user named “snmpUser.” After adding and setting access rights for the snmpUser, you can force a 
switch to any of the target devices to which the snmpUser has access. 
For instructions on adding an SNMP user, see the AMWorks software online help program. For 
more information on forcing an external switch on the AMX switch, refer to the specific MIB file 
called AMX-MIB. This MIB file is available on the AMWorks software CD. You can also 
download the AMX-MIB file by visiting www.avocent.com/support and clicking 
Product Upgrades.
