t5 (management-policy)

Configures SNMP server settings for T5 devices on this management policy

A T5 controller is an external device that can be adopted and managed by a WiNG controller. When enabled as a supported external device, the T5 controller provides data to WiNG to assist in it‘s management within a WiNG supported subnet.

This command enables SNMP to communicate with T5 devices within the network. SNMP facilitates the exchange of management information between the controller or service platform and the T5 device. For more information, see snmp-server.
