21.6
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for exchanging
management information between network devices. SNMP is a member of the TCP/IP
protocol suite. Your ZyXEL Device supports SNMP agent functionality, which allows a
manager station to manage and monitor the ZyXEL Device through the network. The ZyXEL
Device supports SNMP version one (SNMPv1) and version two (SNMPv2). The next figure
illustrates an SNMP management operation.
Note:
SNMP is only available if TCP/IP is configured.

DESCRIPTION
Port
You may change the server port number for a service if needed, however you must
use the same port number in order to use that service for remote management.
Access Status
Select the interface(s) through which a computer may access the ZyXEL Device
using this service.
Secured Client IP
A secured client is a “trusted” computer that is allowed to communicate with the
ZyXEL Device using this service.
Select
All
to allow any computer to access the ZyXEL Device using this service.
Choose

SNMP Management Model
An SNMP managed network consists of two main types of component: agents and a manager.
An agent is a management software module that resides in a managed device (the ZyXEL
Device). An agent translates the local management information from the managed device into
a form compatible with SNMP. The manager is the console through which network
administrators perform network management functions. It executes applications that control
and monitor managed devices.
The managed devices contain object variables/managed objects that define each piece of
information to be collected about a device. Examples of variables include such as number of
packets received, node port status etc. A Management Information Base (MIB) is a collection
of managed objects. SNMP allows a manager and agents to communicate for the purpose of
accessing these objects.
SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol based on the manager/agent model. The
manager issues a request and the agent returns responses using the following protocol
operations:
Get - Allows the manager to retrieve an object variable from the agent.
GetNext - Allows the manager to retrieve the next object variable from a table or list
within an agent. In SNMPv1, when a manager wants to retrieve all elements of a table
from an agent, it initiates a Get operation, followed by a series of GetNext operations.
Set - Allows the manager to set values for object variables within an agent.
Trap - Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events.
21.6.1
Supported MIBs
The ZyXEL Device supports MIB II that is defined in RFC-1213 and RFC-1215. The focus of
the MIBs is to let administrators collect statistical data and monitor status and performance.

SNMP Traps
The ZyXEL Device will send traps to the SNMP manager when any one of the following
events occurs:

Table 108
SNMP Traps
TRAP #
TRAP NAME
DESCRIPTION
0
coldStart (defined in
RFC-1215
)
A trap is sent after booting (power on).
1
warmStart (defined in
RFC-1215
)
A trap is sent after booting (software reboot).
4
authenticationFailure (defined in
RFC-1215
)
A trap is sent to the manager when receiving any
SNMP get or set requirements with the wrong
community (password).
6
whyReboot (defined in ZYXEL-
MIB)
A trap is sent with the reason of restart before
rebooting when the system is going to restart (warm
start).
6a
For intentional reboot:
A trap is sent with the message "System reboot by
user!" if reboot is done intentionally, (for example,
download new files, CI command "sys reboot", etc.).
6b
For fatal error:
A trap is sent with the message of the fatal code if the
system reboots because of fatal errors.
