1 Introduction
This document provides a tutorial on how to set up the SNMP service in UC-2100 computers
and use MXview to monitor them.
2 Prerequisites
The following firmware and MXview versions are required:
• UC-2100 firmware version v1.7 and higher
• MXview v3.1.20 and higher
Note:
The abovementioned firmware and MXview versions are required for the SNMP
service to work. If a higher level of security needs to be set up on the UC-2100
computer, you can enable and configure SNMPv3. For additional details, refer to
the instructions in the following sections.
3 Restart the SNMP and LLDP Services on the UC-2100
1. Enable the SNMP and LLDP services on the computer.
sudo systemctl enable snmpd
Sudo systemctl enable lldpd
2. Modify the snmpd.conf file to include the configuration required to monitor the
computer remotely.
• Open the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file in the vim editor
sudo vim /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
• Modify the snmpd.conf file as follows:
# Listen for connections from the local system only
# agentAddress udp:127.0.0.1:161
# Listen for connections on all interfaces (both IPv4 *and*
IPv6)
agentAddress udp:161,udp6:[::1]:161
3. Restart the SNMP and LLDP services.
sudo systemctl enable snmpd
Sudo systemctl enable lldpd
