Settings - SNMP Receivers

This section configures MIP to accept polling requests from the “Network Management Systems” (NMS). The MIP SNMP implementation is read-only. The management console is able to query MIP for status but not change settings via SNMP. MIP issues traps reporting unusual events to the management console.
