Configuring SNMP on the Access Point

Cisco AP541N Dual-band Single-radio Access Point Quick Start Guide

You can restrict the source of permitted SNMP requests.

To restrict the source of permitted SNMP requests, click 
Enabled

To permit any source submitting an SNMP request, click 
Disabled.

Specify the IPv4 DNS hostname or subnet of the 
machines that can execute get and set requests to the 
managed devices.

As with community names, this provides a level of 
security on SNMP settings. The SNMP agent only accepts 
requests from the hostname or subnet specified here.

To specify a subnet, enter one or more subnetwork 
address ranges in the form 

address/mask_length 

where 

address is an IP address and mask_length is the 

number of mask bits. Both formats 

address/mask and 

address/mask_length are supported. Individual hosts 
can be provided for this, i.e. I.P Address or Hostname. For 
example, if you enter a range of 

192.168.1.0/24 this 

specifies a subnetwork with address 

192.168.1.0 and 

a subnet mask of 

255.255.255.0. 

The address range is used to specify the subnet of the 
designated NMS. Only machines with IP addresses in this 
range are permitted to execute get and set requests on 
the managed device. Given the example above, the 
machines with addresses from 

192.168.1.1 through 

192.168.1.254 can execute SNMP commands on the 
device. (The address identified by suffix .0 in a 
subnetwork range is always reserved for the subnet 
address, and the address identified by 

.255 in the range 

is always reserved for the broadcast address). 

As another example, if you enter a range of 
10.10.1.128/25, machines with IP addresses from 
10.10.1.129 through 10.10.1.254 can execute 
SNMP requests on managed devices. In this example, 
10.10.1.128 is the network address and 10.10.1.255 
is the broadcast address. 126 addresses are designated.
