SNMP TRAPS
An SNMP trap is a message sent by a network device, such as the
ATLAS 800
PLUS
, to report an operational anomaly or alarm condition.
Trap Destination List
A trap destination list contains information about sites designated to receive
SNMP traps. You can configure this list via a Telnet session or the VT-100
terminal menu. The ATLAS 800
PLUS
supports up to four trap destination
lists. By default, the destination list is empty.
Configuring a Trap Destination List via Terminal Menu
To configure the trap destination list, from the terminal menu select
System Config / SNMP / Traps Destination . Then enter your information,
similar to that shown in Table 12-1. (See also, Traps Destination on page 6-10.)
.
IP Address is the address of the network management station to which
ATLAS 800
PLUS
sends the trap. Community is the trap community-name
used for the selected network device. Trap Filtering is a record allowing you
to assign thresholds to each category of the ATLAS 800
PLUS
events.
Filtering (Disabling) Traps
You can disable trap generating events in three ways:
1. Disable
Trap Transmission.
From the terminal menu, select
SNMP
and set
Trap Transmission
to
DISABLED
.
2. Define trap thresholds to disable specific trap events. Refer to the
ATLAS MIB in System Event Logging on page A-1 for a description of
each trap event supported by the ATLAS.

coldStart
trap, a system controller event. If
you defined for destination 0 a trap filtering threshold of
