Snow chains on trailer axles

I have a triple axle fiver and was wondering if I had to chain up the trailer this winter, which axle should I chain? Would just the lead axle be enough, or 1 and 3? Do I need to chain all 3 axles? It is a pretty heavy beast. What about cables for the trailer? I don't EVER intend to tow in snow if I can help it, but the boyscout in me wants to have something along in case I get caught before I can land somewhere.
Also looking for recommendations about chains for the dually.

Thanks
Steve
