CAUTION: Hewlett-Packard recommends using HP Web Jetadmin to configure SNMP v3 and other
security settings on the print server.
If you use the HP Embedded Web Server, existing SNMP v3 accounts are removed. In addition, you
must implement the SNMP v3 account information on the SNMP management application. For more
information, see
SNMP v3 on page 99.
Table 4-12 SNMP tab settings
Item Description
Enable SNMPv1/v2
read-write access
Select the check box to enable the SNMP v1/v2c agents on the print server. Configure custom
community names to control management access to the print server.
Set Community Name is a password to send (or write) SNMP information on the HP Jetdirect
print server.
Get Community Name is a password to retrieve (or read) SNMP information on the
HP Jetdirect print server.
An incoming SNMP SetRequest or GetRequest command must contain the appropriate Set or
Get community name for the print server to respond.
Enter up to 255 alphanumeric characters for the community names.
Select the check box to disable the default Get community name public.
NOTE: If public is disabled, some port monitors or discovery utilities might not operate
properly.
Enable SNMPv1/v2
read-only access
Enable the SNMP v1/v2c agents on the print server, but limit access to read-only. Write-
access is disabled. The default Get community name public is automatically enabled.
Disable SNMPv1/v2
Disable the SNMP v1/v2c agents on the print server. This is recommended for secure
environments.
NOTE: If you disable SNMP v1/v2c, some port monitors or discovery utilities might not
operate correctly.
Enable SNMPv3
(Full-featured HP Jetdirect print servers only) Enable the SNMP v3 agent on the print server.
You must create an SNMP v3 account on the print server, and implement the account
information on the SNMP v3 management application. To create the account, provide the
following information:
User Name SNMP v3 account user name.
Authentication Key A 16 byte (MD5) hexadecimal value used to validate credentials.
Privacy Key A 16 byte hexadecimal value used to encrypt the data portion of the packet
using the data encryption standard (DES) algorithm.
Context Name Context in which this user can access SNMP objects. This is always Jetdirect.
