Configuring SNMP 16-5
To configure an entry, press the corresponding "
Seq
" (sequence) number. To delete an
entry, select it, then press
[E]
(and
[Y]
when asked to confirm). All entries below a
deleted one will move up one in the list.
If running IP over a frame relay port with link layer man-
agement (LMI or Annex D), initial IPL traps will be lost by the
time the frame relay DLCI comes up.
Trap Routing Parameters
Address
is an IP address to which all traps meeting the "enabled" and severity class criteria will
be sent.
Enabled
determines whether or not traps meeting the severity class criterion will be sent to the
specified address.
Severity
determines the lowest severity-level traps (events) that will be sent to the specified
address. (1 is the highest.) For example, if 3 is specified, traps of severity levels 1, 2,
and 3 will be sent (assuming the menu item is enabled).
There are four levels of severity:
●
Level 1 = Serious fault. This is a serious error and immediate action is required.
●
Level 2 = Major fault/link alarm. Link alarms 400–406 are at this level simply
to show importance; for any other events, take action as soon as possible.
●
Level 3= Minor fault/traffic disturbance. Clear the fault at the first suitable
occasion.
●
Level 4 = Configuration error/informational event. Depending on the event, no
action may be necessary and, if so, correcting the configuration of certain
database parameters may be adequate.
Event messages and their severity levels are listed in Chapter 21 .
