Introduction

On this page we would like to provide more details about SNMP and how to use a freeware tool for testing.

  1. Download and install the freeware tool: https://www.manageengine.com/products/mibbrowser-free-tool/
  2. N670 with the IP address 192.168.178.190
  3. PC has the IP address: 192.168.178.14


From software 2.36 SNMP is disabled when the SNMP manager address = 0.0.0.0

Nx70 Settings

In the Nx70 web-interface go to: SETTINGS - System - System log - SNMP statistics

Enter the SNMP manager information, in this example my PC (192.168.178.14).  

We used the default username and password.
