Zixi Broadcaster enables monitoring and control via SNMP (on Linux only). The monitoring system can receive SNMP Trap messages from Zixi Broadcaster as well as access monitored objects with read-only and read-write access privileges (objects and their access permissions are defined in the MIB). Zixi Broadcaster supports SNMPv1, SNMPv2, and SNMPv3. Before using SNMP you need to ensure that SNMP is enabled in your Zixi Broadcaster license, run a script, as described below, and configure the SNMP settings in the Settings >SNMP screen.
