SNMP Agents
The S8300, S8500, and S8700 Media Servers contain SNMP modules. A simplified SNMP manager
exists to collect traps from network elements such as the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), Ethernet
switches, and media gateways. An SNMP alarm sub-agent exists to send SNMP traps to customer
provided network managers. An SNMP alarm sub-agent exists to send alarms as traps to the Initialization
and Administration System (INADS). An SNMP master agent, MIB-II sub-agent, and Communication
Manager SNMP agent (CMSA) are provided.
The co-resident CMSA is used to manage the co-resident call-processing software.
NOTE:
The following procedures are for the S8300, S8500, and S8700 Media Servers only.
