Following is a summary of the Palette contents:

SnmpNetwork

This component contains the required Local Device component and its child components:

  • Alarm Source Info
  • Points
  • Exports.

Client

This container holds the components that are typically used for setting up a client Snmp (Manager) network, including the SnmpDevice component and its child components:

  • Alarm Source Info
  • Points
  • Traps.

Additionally, a specially marked SnmpPointFolder is provided for organizing points, if desired. The standard point types are located in the Client Points folder as well. Most of the time you will probably use the Point Manager View to add points under the client device.

Agent

The agent components include Agent Points that are standard point types with proxy extensions pre-configured for an SnmpDevice.

Objects

This folder contains a set of proxy points that can be exposed as individual points instead of the table presentation used for agent proxies and export points. The points allow values to be exposed as any supported Snmp ASN data type. To use these, add the SnmpObjectDeviceExt (from this folder in the Palette) to the Local Device.

Trap Generation

This folder contains the SnmpRecipient component.
