1 Description

This instruction describes how to configure the SNMP Master Agent with engineId.

2 Procedure

2.1 Configure SNMP Master Agent with engineId

Prerequisites

No documents are required.
No tools are required.
The following conditions must apply:
- An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) in exec mode is in progress.

Steps

Navigate to the Snmp Managed Object (MO), for example:
>dn ManagedElement=1,SystemFunctions=1,SysM=1,Snmp=1
Enter Config mode:
(Snmp=1)>configure
Configure the SNMP Master Agent with an engineId which can be a string, for example:
(config-Snmp=1)>engineId="1234567890"
Commit the settings:
(config-Snmp=1)>commit

Verify the settings:

(Snmp=1)>show -v

The following is an example output:

Snmp=1
   administrativeState=UNLOCKED <default>
   enableSourceCheckForV1V2C=false <default>
   engineId="1234567890"
   nodeCredential="ManagedElement=1,SystemFunctions=1,⇒
SecM=1,CertM=1,NodeCredential=nc1"
   operationalState=ENABLED <read-only>
   port=161 <default>
   portDtls=10161 <default>
   snmpId="1"
   trustCategory="ManagedElement=1,SystemFunctions=1,⇒
SecM=1,CertM=1,TrustCategory=tc1"
   agentAddress[@1]
      host="127.0.0.1"
      port=161
   agentAddressDtls[@1]
      host="127.0.0.1"
      port=10161

Note:: If SNMP stack cannot support setting the engineId, then the applied value is ignored, keeping the current empty value.
The engineId attribute is optional. If not set by NBI user, then a random engineId, generated by netSNMP library, is used.
