SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used for monitoring and controlling a
wide variety of different units in a network. Detailed information about this topic can be
found under http://www.wikipedia.org/. 

A description of the unit - the MIB (Management Information Base) - must be loaded in the
central unit ("manager") from which the transmitters are monitored. 

A monitored unit contains a program ("agent") which can answer queries from the manager
and execute commands. Furthermore, the agent may of its own accord generate a mes-
sage and send it to the manager. In this way, the central unit can be informed of a fault. 

The MIBs required for monitoring and controlling a transmitter are stored as a ZIP archive
directly in the transmitter control unit and can be downloaded from there using any network-
compatible unit. All of the information required for configuration is contained in the MIBs
themselves.

When the transmitter is put into operation, both the agent in the transmitter and the manag-
er must be configured. Additional steps may be necessary if the transmitter is connected
via routers, firewalls or similar devices as they may block data packets.



The XX8000 transmitter family supports the versions SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.



Alarms can be sent as v1Traps, v2Traps or v2Informs. 



Several destinations can be set for fault messages (alarm sinks).



Several communities can be set with Read Only authorization and Read/Write authori-
zation. 

You can make settings yourself via the local display (if available), the web server or SNMP.
The menu windows of the SNMP menu contain all the settings that are required for access-
ing a transmitter.
