admin@XorPlus# set protocols snmp community Pica8-data-center authorization read-only
admin@XorPlus# set protocols snmp contact support@pica8.com
admin@XorPlus# set protocols snmp location Beijing
admin@XorPlus# set protocols snmp trap-group targets 10.10.1.1 security-name Pica8-data-center

admin@XorPlus# set system snmp-acl network 2.2.2.0/24

Configuring SNMPset

User can use "snmpset" (OID1.3.6.1.4.1.35098.2.0.0) to load a configuration and can use "snmpset" (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.35098.2.1.0) to delete or load a configuration. However, only set and delete commands can be included in the command batch (which is OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.35098.2.1.0). Other commands are invalid and ignored. Note that clearing a dependent configuration is not allowed.

admin@XorPlus# set protocols snmp community private authorization read-write
admin@XorPlus# commit

Commit OK.

root@dev:~# snmpset -v 2c -c private IP .1.3.6.1.4.1.35098.2.1.0 s "tftp:1.1.5.1:/pica8/delete-acl.conf"
