Community name configuration

msh> snmp “number” name “community_name”

  • You can configure ten SNMP access settings numbered 1-10.

  • The printer cannot be accessed from SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin or SmartDeviceMonitor for Client if “public” is not registered in numbers 1-10. When changing the community name, use SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin and SNMP Setup Tool to correspond with printer settings.

  • The community name can be entered using up to 15 characters.

Protocol configuration

Use the following command to set protocols “active” or “inactive”: If you set a protocol “inactive”, all access settings for that protocol are disabled.

msh> snmp {ipv4|ipv6|ipx} {on|off}

  • Specify “ipv4” for IPv4, “ipv6” for IPv6, or “ipx” for IPX/SPX.

  • {on} means “active” and {off} means “inactive”.

  • All protocols cannot be turned off concurrently.

Configuration of protocol for each registration number

msh> snmp “number” active {ipv4|ipv6|ipx} {on|off}

  • To change the protocol of access settings, use the following command. However, if you have disabled a protocol with the above command, activating it here has no effect.

Access configuration

msh> snmp “number” {ipv4|ipv6|ipx} “address”

  • You can configure a host address according to the protocol used.

  • The network interface board accepts requests only from hosts that have IPv4, IPv6, and IPX addresses with access types of “read-only” or “read-write”. Enter “0” to have network interface board accept requests from any host without requiring a specific type of access.

  • Enter a host address to deliver “trap” access type information to.

  • To specify IPv4 or IPv6, enter “ipv4” or “ipv6” followed by a space, and then the IPv4 or IPv6 address.

  • To specify IPX/SPX, enter “ipx” followed by a space, the IPX address followed by a decimal, and then the MAC address of the network interface board.

sysLocation configuration

msh> snmp location

Deleting sysLocation

msh> snmp clear location

sysContact setting

msh> snmp contact

Deleting sysContact

msh> snmp clear contact

SNMP v1v2 function configuration

msh> snmp v1v2 {on|off}

SNMP v3 function configuration

msh> snmp v3 {on|off}

  • Specify “on” to enable, and “off” to disable.

SNMP TRAP configuration

msh> snmp trap{v1|v2|v3} {on|off}

  • Specify “on” to enable, and “off” to disable.

  • Specify “on” to enable, and “off” to disable the SNMP v1v2 setting.

SNMP v3 TRAP configuration display

msh> snmp v3trap

msh> snmp v3trap [1-5]

  • If a number from 1 to 5 is entered, settings are displayed for that number only.

Configuring a sending address for SNMP v3 TRAP

msh> snmp v3trap [1-5] {ipv4|ipv6|ipx} “address”

Configuring a sending protocol for SNMP v3 TRAP

msh> snmp v3trap [1-5] active {ipv4|ipv6|ipx} {on|off}

Configuring a user account for SNMP v3 TRAP

msh> snmp v3trap [1-5] account “account_name”

  • Enter an account name using up to 32 alphanumeric characters.

Deleting an SNMP v3 TRAP user account

msh> snmp v3trap [1-5] clear account

Configuring an SNMP v3 encryption algorithm

msh> snmp v3auth {md5|sha1}

Configuring SNMP v3 encryption

msh> snmp v3priv {auto|on}

  • Set “auto” for automatic encryption configuration.

  • If you select “on”, plain-text communication becomes impossible - only encrypted communication is possible.

Note

  • “Encrypted communication” means an encrypted password is set on the machine.
