Frequently asked questions on SNMP

How to activate SNMP?

The default MIBS are always active, but you need to open the firewall in AlphaWeb (UDP port 161).

Which functions of SNMP are implemented?

In addition to the AlphaCom MIB, the standard MIBs mibII, ucd-snmp and snmpv2 are implemented. These Mibs only implements polled information.

The AlphaCom MIB implements two main statuses:

AMC-IP status (Enabled/Disabled) (Same as AlphaWeb Node State/Operational)
RTP statistics (Audio Statistics)

All MIBS variables are accessed through SNMP v2 protocol with community public. All variables are read only. Example of reading the AlphaCom MIB with NET-SNMP:

> snmpwalk –v 2c –c public localhost enterprises.26122

Where to get the MIB configuration file?

The active MIB file for a ACE board can be found in the folder :

/usr/local/share/snmp/mibs/ALPHACOM-MIB.txt

How to activate SNMP Traps?

SNMP trap is configure in AlphaWeb, System Configuration > Logging Select destination ‘SNMP Trap’ and configure which logs you want to send.

The SNMP traps will be sent with the OID: enterprises.1000.1 (This may be subject to change since it is not using our own Zenitel SNMP OID)

How to change the SNMP UDP port number?

Connect to the linux console through the ssh port using a terminal program like Putty.
log in as normal with alpha/com
In the linux bash write these commands:
- su [enter]
- root password [enter]
- nano /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf

Add the line agentaddress 165 somewhere. Here 165 is the new portnumber used as an example:

Use ctrl+X followed by Y to save and exit.

How to change the SNMP trap UDP port number?

Connect to the linux console through the ssh port using a terminal program like Putty.
log in as normal with alpha/com
In the linux bash write these commands:
- su [enter]
- root password [enter]
- nano /var/opt/www/amc_ip_config.xml [enter]

Step a couple of pages down and you should find:

<destination>
        <type>snmptrap</type>
        10.5.101.112

Add the new port number to the IP address like this: 10.5.101.112:165

Use ctrl+X followed by Y to save and exit.
Finally write:
- /etc/init.d/syslog-ng restart
