This section explains how to use the SNMP on the network camera� The Simple Network 

Management Protocol is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of 

management information between network devices� It helps network administrators to 

remotely manage network devices and find, solve network problems with ease. 

■ The SNMP consists of the following three key components: 

1. Manager: Network-management station (NMS), a server which executes applications that 

monitor and control managed devices�

2. Agent: A network-management software module on a managed device which transfers the status 

of managed devices to the NMS�

3. Managed device: A network node on a managed network. For example: routers, switches, 

bridges, hubs, computer hosts, printers, IP telephones, network cameras, web server, and 

database� 

Before configuring SNMP settings on the this page, please enable your NMS first.

Enable SNMPv1, SNMPv2c 

Select this option and enter the names of Read/Write community and Read Only community 

according to your NMS settings�

Enable SNMPv3

This option contains cryptographic security, a higher security level, which allows you to set the 

Authentication password and the Encryption password� 

■ Security name: According to your NMS settings, choose Read/Write or Read Only and enter the 

community name�

■ Authentication type: Select MD5 or SHA as the authentication method.
