Configuring The SNMP Agent
Server Administrator supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP—a systems management standard—
on all supported operating systems. The SNMP support may or may not be installed depending on your operating system
and how the operating system was installed. In most cases, SNMP is installed as part of your operating system
installation. An installed supported systems management protocol standard, such as SNMP, is required before installing
Server Administrator.
You can configure the SNMP agent to change the community name, enable Set operations, and send traps to a
management station. To configure your SNMP agent for proper interaction with management applications such as the
Dell OpenManage IT Assistant, perform the procedures described in the following sections.
NOTE: The default SNMP agent configuration usually includes a SNMP community name such as public. For
security reasons, you must rename the default SNMP community names. For information about renaming the
SNMP community names, see
Changing The SNMP Community Name.
NOTE: SNMP Set operations are disabled by default in Server Administrator version 5.2 or later. You can enable or
disable SNMP Set operations using the Server Administrator SNMP Configuration page under Preferences or the
Server Administrator command line interface (CLI). For more information about the Server Administrator CLI, see
the
Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Command Line Interface Guide
at dell.com/support/manuals.
NOTE: For IT Assistant to retrieve management information from a system running Server Administrator, the
community name used by IT Assistant must match a community name on the system running Server Administrator.
For IT Assistant to modify information or perform actions on a system running Server Administrator, the community
name used by IT Assistant must match a community name that allows Set operations on the system running
Server Administrator. For IT Assistant to receive traps (asynchronous event notifications) from a system running
Server Administrator, the system running Server Administrator must be configured to send traps to the system
running IT Assistant.
The following procedures provide step-by-step instructions for configuring the SNMP agent for each supported
operating system:
• Configuring the SNMP Agent For Systems Running Supported Windows Operating Systems
• Configuring the SNMP Agent On Systems Running Supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux
• Configuring the SNMP Agent On Systems Running Supported SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
• Configuring the SNMP Agent On Systems Running Supported VMware ESX 4.X Operating Systems to Proxy VMware
MIBs
• Configuring the SNMP Agent On Systems Running Supported VMware ESXi 4.X and ESXi 5.X Operating Systems
