However, it is important to note that the remote IMUX’s “Unit IP Address”
parameter must be set to some non-zero value in order to respond to the
bridged IP packets.
SNMP trap packets from the remote IMUX unit are modified upon receipt.
The source IP address field in the trap packet is modified to the “Remote IP
Address” parameter; then the packet is forwarded out the NMS/SLIP link.
In-Band SNMP to Remote
This feature allows you to manage both local and remote units with a
single NMS station attached to only one of the two units.
If the unit receives an SNMP packet from its SLIP port with the IP address
of the remote unit, the local unit forwards the packet to the remote unit
over the Embedded Data Link.
If the unit receives an SNMP packet that does not match its IP address or
the IP address of the remote unit, the packet is discarded.
The unit responds to SNMP packets with its IP address from an NMS with
any IP address.
The unit transmits SNMP responses from either its SLIP port or to the
remote unit depending on the direction from which the packet came.
The IP address of the remote unit must be set to a non-zero value for this
feature to work. This field is shown in
Figure 4-19 on page 4-39 .
