The print server function can be enabled or disabled. It is enabled by 

default. If you do not plan to set up the print server function, you can 

click Disable and leave the metal plate on the printer port. The metal 

plate is provided to protect that port from water.

The SNMP (simple network management protocol) Agent setup page 

allows you to set up an SNMP Agent. The agent is a software module 

that collects and stores management information for use in a network 

management system. The 3e-531AP's integrated SNMP agent software 

module translates the device’s management information into a common 

form for interpretation by the SNMP Manager, which usually resides on a 

network administrator’s computer.  

The SNMP Manager function interacts with the SNMP Agent to 

execute applications to control and manage object variables (interface 

features and devices) in the gateway. Common forms of managed infor-

mation include number of packets received on an interface, port status, 

dropped packets, and so forth. SNMP is a simple request and response 

protocol, allowing the manager to interact with the agent to either

• Get - Allows the manager to Read information about an object 

variable

• Set - Allows the manager to Write values for object variables with-

in an agent’s control, or 

• Trap - Allows the manager to Capture  information and send an 

alert about some pre-selected event to a specifi c destination

The SNMP confi guration consists of several fi elds, which are ex-

plained below:

 –The Community fi eld for Get (Read Only), Set 

(Read & Write), and Trap is simply the SNMP terminology for 

“password” for those functions. 

 –The IP address or name where the information is ob-

tained.

 –Defi nes the level of management interaction per-

mitted.
