OPTION
DEFINITION
Enable SNMP
The option to disable or enable the SNMP function.
Get Community
An SNMP community is the group that devices and management stations running SNMP belong to. It helps
define where information is sent. The Get Community field gets the current community name is used to identify
the group.
A SNMP device or agent may belong to more than one SNMP community. It will not respond to
requests from management stations that do not belong to one of its communities. SNMP default communities
are: Write
–
private; Read
–
public.
Set Community
An SNMP community is the group that devices and management stations running SNMP belong to. It helps
define where information is sent. The Set Community field sets the new community name used to identify the
group.
A SNMP device or agent may belong to more than one SNMP community. It will not respond to
requests from management stations that do not belong to one of its communities. SNMP default communities
are: Write

private; Read

IP 1
Enter the IP address for one of the local clients connected to router. SNMP will then gather and transmit the
network information that you specified.
IP 2
Enter the IP address for the second of the local clients connected to router. SNMP will then gather and transmit
the network information specified.
IP 3
Enter the IP address for the third of the local clients connected to router. SNMP will then gather and transmit
the network information specified.
IP 4
Enter the IP address for the fourth of the local clients connected to router. SNMP will then gather and transmit
the network information specified.
SNMP Version
Select the version SNMP you wish to use with the NF2.
WAN Access IP Address
Enter the WAN Access IP Address used to provide (WAN) Wide Area Network connectivity to the internet.

Routing
The Routing page in the Advanced Settings section of the NF2 provides a network administrator with the means to configure the
routing method that the NF2 will use, either dynamic routing or static routing. Routes are called static if they do not change over
time. Thus a static routing table is loaded with values when the system starts and the routes do not change unless an error is
detected. Conversely, dynamic routing refers to a system that can change its routing table information over time. With dynamic
routing, software known as RIP (Routing Information Protocol) interacts with network devices and learns the optimal route to each
location. Then RIP updates the local routing table to ensure datagrams follow the optimal routes.
Figure 41: Advanced - Advanced - Settings - Routing
Dynamic Routing: Routing Information Protocol (RIP) will exchange information about different host destinations for working out
routes throughout the network.
Please note: Only select RIPv2 if you have a different subnet in your network. Otherwise, please select RIPv1.
Static Routing: For static routing, you can specify up to 8 routing rules. You need to enter the destination IP address; subnet mask,
gateway, and hop for each routing rule, then enable the rule by clicking the Enable checkbox.
