SNMP Settings
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) lets a network administrator monitor problems on a
network by retrieving settings on remote network devices. The network administrator typically runs an
SNMP management station program on a local host to obtain information from an SNMP agent such as
the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.

Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. By
default, the Motorola Netopia® Gateway is associated with the public community.
set snmp community write name
Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
set snmp community trap name
Adds the specified name to the list of communities associated with the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
set snmp trap ip-traps ip-address
Identifies the destination for SNMP trap messages. The ip-address argument is the IP address of
the host acting as an SNMP console.
set snmp sysgroup contact contact_info

the person responsible for the Motorola Netopia® Gateway. You can enter up to 255 characters for the
contact_info argument. You must put the contact_info argument in double-quotes if it contains
embedded spaces.
set snmp sysgroup location location_info
Identifies the location, such as the building, floor, or room number, of the Motorola Netopia® Gateway.

❑ v1-trap – This selection will generate notifications containing an SNMPv1 Trap Protocol Data Unit
