4 describesthecaseof“mib-2.system.sysContact.0”.
This field is used to describe the information on
administrator of this camera. Nothing is set at the
factory.
Using the SNMP
This unit supports SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol). You can read MIB-2 objects
and write some MIB-2 objects using software such as
SNMP manager software. This unit also supports the
coldStart trap which occurs when the power is turned on
or the unit restarts, and the Authentication failure trap
which informs of an illegal access using SNMP.
Using CGI commands, you can set community name
and access limitation, reading/writing right, host to send
traps, and some MIB-2 objects. To allow these settings,
you need authentication by the camera administrator.
5 describes the case of “mib-2.system. sysName.0”.
This field is used to describe administration mode
of this camera. Nothing is set at the factory.
6 describes the case of “mib-2.snmpEnable
AuthenTraps.0”. This example shows when “1”
(enable) is set. With this setting, a trap occurs when
there is an Authentication failure. When “2”
(disable) is set, no Authentication failure trap
occurs.
7 describes the community name and the reading/
writing attributes. This example shows the
identification number “ID=1”, the community
name public, and enables read from any IP address
(0.0.0.0).
1. Inquiry Commands
You can check the SNMP Agent settings using the
following CGI commands.
<Method>
GET, POST
<Command>
8 describes the community name and the reading/
writing attributes, similarly to 7. This example
shows the identification number ID=2, the
community name “private”, and enables “read/
