Monitoring and Controlling the Machine with SNMP0YSF-03LSimple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol for monitoring and controlling communication devices in anetwork by using Management Information Base (MIB). The machine supports SNMPv1 and security-enhancedSNMPv3. You can check the status of the machine from a computer when you print documents or use the Remote UI.You can enable either SNMPv1 or SNMPv3, or both at the same time. Specify the settings for each version to suit yournetwork environment and the purpose of use.SNMPv1SNMPv1 uses information called "community" to define the scope of SNMP communication. Because thisinformation is exposed to the network in plain text, your network will be vulnerable to attacks. If you want toensure network security, disable SNMPv1 and use SNMPv3.SNMPv3With SNMPv3, you can implement network device management that is protected by robust security features.Note that TLS must be enabled for the Remote UI before configuring SNMPv3 ( Using TLS for EncryptedCommunications(P. 297) ).● The machine does not support the trap notification feature of SNMP.● SNMP management software, when installed on a computer on the network, enables you to configure,monitor, and control the machine remotely from the computer. For more information, see the instructionmanuals for your management software.1 Start the Remote UI and log on in Management Mode.
