If you intend to manage your MultiVOIP remotely using the MultiVoipManager software, you will need to set the 
Simple Network Management Protocol parameters. To make the MultiVOIP controllable by a remote PC running 
the MultiVoipManager software, check the “Enable SNMP Agent” box on the SNMP Parameters screen. 

The –SS and –FX series MultiVOIPs only have limited SNMP functionality available. If this is something you wish 
to use on those models, please contact Multi-Tech Support for assistance. 

 

The SNMP Parameter fields are described in the table below. 

Enable SNMP 
Agent 

Y/N 

Enables the SNMP code in the firmware of the MultiVOIP.  This must be 
enabled for the MultiVOIP to communicate with and be controllable by the  
MultiVoipManager software.   
Default:  disabled

A “community” is a group of VOIP endpoints that can communicate with each 
other.  Often “public” is used to designate a grouping where all end users 
have access to entire VOIP network.  However, calling permissions can be 
configured to restrict access as needed. 

Port Number 

162 

The default port number of the SNMP manager receiving the traps is the 
standard port 162.
