3.9.5 Enable or Disable
SNMP
Agent
The QuickPanel
+
Operator Interface can be enabled as a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Agent with
the capability to communicate with SNMP Managers for notification of Traps and responding to Query HMI Tag
values.
Since it is designed to run over a public network, SNMP communication is disabled by default on the QuickPanel
+
device
for security reasons. As a security measure, the SNMP feature requires a tactile input gesture to enable and disable
SNMP
communication.
Note Refer to the section Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for further details.
Note Enabling or disabling SNMP communication is a one-time user configuration.

SNMP
Agent
1. From the Start menu, select Programs, System, and QuickPanel
+
OS Utilities Settings Tool to display the
QuickPanel
+
OS Utilities Settings window.
2. Enable SNMP communication.
From the QuickPanel
+
OS Utilities
Settings window, select SNMP.
Double-tap Enable to enable
SNMP communication .
