Configure SNMP communication

Fujifilm devices can use either SNMP v1/2c or SNMP v3 communication to manage networked devices. SNMP v1/2c uses community names to authenticate requests, and SNMP v3 uses a combination of authentication and privacy keys and protocols to send and receive information from devices on the network.

Both SNMP v1/2c and SNMP v3 require a SNMP configuration set. The Default configuration set can be used if all devices match the SNMP configuration, otherwise a custom configuration set must be defined. Although some devices support both SNMP v1/2c and SNMP v3 simultaneously, the physical device set in Web System Manager can only be configured for one or the other.

To create the SNMP configuration set, do the following:

  1. In Web System Manager, go to Global Configuration Settings > Network Environment > Domain Qualification, Uplink, SMTP Mail and SNMP configuration.
  2. In the SNMP Configuration section enter a Polling interval value for SNMP status changes (in minutes). Choose a polling interval value that is not too low so that network traffic is properly accounted for.
  3. Click Add to open an SNMP dialog box, and do the following:
    1. Enter a Configuration name.
    2. Enable SNMP v1/2c or SNMP v3.
      • If Enable SNMP v1/2c is selected, set the Get (Read-only) and Set (Read and Write) community names to public and private respectively. All characters must be entered in lower case.
      - Or -
      • If Enable SNMP v3 is selected, provide the following information:
        • Security Name: User name is Xadmin.
        • Context Name: Not required for Fujifilm devices.
        • Authentication Key: The pass-phrase set at the device (at least 8 characters in length).
        • Authentication Protocol: Select MD5 from the drop-down list.
    3. Click OK to close the SNMP dialog box.
  4. Click Apply to save the settings.

If desired, click <Add> and follow the previous steps to create additional SNMP configurations.

If you change the default names in Web System Manager, you must also change them on all of your physical devices to match, in order for SNMP communication to work. Consult your Fujifilm documentation for information on changing these settings.
