SNMP Interface

Purpose

You can retrieve various administration information via SNMPv2:

• A list of enforcers.
• A list of decider nodes and their configuration.

  The data that is returned is identical with that of the REST interface (see Decider Cluster REST Interface).

• A list of the entries on the global IP blacklist.

  The data that is returned is identical with that of the REST interface (see Global IP Blacklist REST Interface).

• A list of applications.

  The data that is returned is identical with that of the REST interface (see Applications REST Interface).

You can only read this data via SNMP, but you cannot change it.

Prerequisites

To be able to use the SNMP interface, you need to specify the SNMP agent IP address and port number in the configuration file zeusafm.conf (see System Configuration, attributes snmpAgentIP and snmpAgentPort). Uncomment the corresponding lines and change the IP address and port number as required.

You do not need any authentication because you can only read data but not change it via SNMP.
