Customizing SNMP
303542-A Rev 00
3-5
The SNMP locking mechanism is enabled by default. This means that the SNMP
agent identifies the station from which it receives the next SNMP
set
command
and, for a time equal to the value of the Lock TimeOut parameter, responds only
to SNMP
set
commands from that station. If the agent receives an SNMP
set
command from another network management station during this time, it issues an
SNMP genErr GetResponse PDU, which that station logs as an SNMP Set Error
message.
To allow the SNMP agent to respond to simultaneous SNMP
set
commands from
multiple network management stations, set the SNMP locking mechanism to
Disable.
Using the BCC

To reenable the lock mechanism, navigate to the SNMP prompt and enter:
