• The name and location of the SNMP contact person
• The SNMP name of the Digi device you are configuring

• The IP address of an SNMP management station to which traps are to be sent on the trap_dest field
• A name for this device on the snmp_name field
• A description of where the Digi device is located on the location field. If there are spaces in this entry, enclose it in quotation marks.
• The name of an SNMP contact person on the snmp_contact field. If there are spaces in this entry, enclose it in quotation marks.
• Whether authentication traps are generated when an authentication error occurs on the auth_trap field
• Whether the SNMP agent should run immediately on the run field
