29.2 Features of Monitoring Using SNMP

  • Ability to enable and disable monitoring. By default, SNMP is not enabled. For information about enabling monitoring, see Enabling Monitoring for Access Manager Components.

  • Provision to change the port information or IP address of Master Agent: You can configure Master Agent to listen on a different port or IP address. The default port is TCP 705.

  • Master Agent and Sub Agent architecture support multiple sub agents: The Master Agent - Sub Agent architecture helps you configure additional Sub Agents to be monitored. For example, you can configure a single Master Agent to receive data from Access Manager components, eDirectory and SLES Sub-Agents.

  • Automatic data synchronization on device addition or removal: The MIB structure is automatically adjusted for dynamic addition or removal of components

  • Automatic reconnect to Master Agent: Every time Administration Console is restarted, reconnection to MasterAgent happens automatically. No manual steps are required.
