5.9.5. Domain Name Server
The DNS menu is used to select IP addresses for Domain Name Servers. When
web and network addresses are entered, the Domain Name Server interprets
domain names (e.g., www.yourcompanyname123.com), and translates them into IP
addresses. Note that if you don’t dene at least one DNS, then IP addresses must be
used, rather than domain names.
5.9.6. SNMP Access Parameters
These menus are used to select access parameters for the SNMP feature. The SNMP
Access Parameters Menu allows the following parameters to be dened:
Note:
After you have configured SNMP Access Parameters, you will
then be able to manage the Outlet Managed PDU’s User Directory,
control power and reboot switching and display unit status via
SNMP, as described in Section 13.
Enable: Enables/disables SNMP Polling. (Default = Off.)
Note:
This item only applies to external SNMP polling of the Outlet
Managed PDU; it does not effect the ability of the Outlet Managed
PDU to send SNMP traps.
Version: Determines which SNMP Version the Outlet Managed PDU will
respond to. For example, if this item is set to V3, then clients who attempt
to contact the Outlet Managed PDU using SNMPv2 will not be allowed to
connect. (Default = V1/V2 Only.)
Read Only: Enables/Disables the "Read Only Mode", which controls the
ability to access conguration functions and invoke switching commands.
When Enabled ("Yes"), you will not be able to change conguration parameters
or invoke other commands when you contact the Outlet Managed PDU via
SNMP. (Default = No.)
Note:
In order to define user names for the Outlet Managed PDU via
your SNMP client, the Read Only feature must be disabled. When
the Read Only feature is enabled, you will not be able to issue
configuration commands to the Outlet Managed PDU via SNMP.
