Avaya S8500 Manuel D’Utilisation

SECURITY ALERT:

The Get and Set community name strings are initially configured with the default 
values of Public and Private, respectively. These community name strings 
function as passwords for their respective SNMP operation. Avaya recommends 
that you change these community name strings to something other than the 
default values. If you leave the defaults in place, a serious security issue can 
result.

For information about which traps to set, see 

●

If the control network is nondedicated, ensure that the 162/udp port for input to server is 
enabled and the default is disabled. If you do not enable the 162/udp port and disable the 
default, the media server cannot receive the traps from either UPS. See 

Note:

Use the default IP addresses.

1. Connect the RS-232 serial port of your Services laptop computer to the DB-9 connector on 

the back of the SNMP module for UPS1. Use the DB-9 to DB-9 serial cable that is supplied 
with the SNMP module.

2. Open a VT-100 terminal emulation session on your computer.

3. Set the IP address for the UPS.

4. Set the subnet mask for the UPS.

5. Set the gateway address for the UPS.

6. Set the IP address of the trap receiver for the UPS.

7. Set the SNMP community name string for Get, Set, and Trap. For information on which 

traps to set, see 

8. When you finish, disconnect your computer from the UPS.

9. Connect one end of a CAT5 straight-through cable to the RJ45 connector on the UPS 

SNMP module and the other end of the cable to the next available port on the Ethernet 
switch for Control Network A (CNA).

For a connectivity guide, see the Quick Start for Hardware Installation: Avaya S8500 
Media Server (555-245-701).

After you configure the SNMP module in the UPS, you must configure the SNMP subagent on 
the Avaya Ethernet switch.
