Supplementary information on SNMP SET usage
As mentioned previously, the SNMP SET commands are controlled (driven) by Cortex inputs which toggle between two
states, active and normal, which in turn generate the SNMP SET commands to send their respective (active or normal
values). This behavior is illustrated in line
A
of the image below.
In some situations, it may be required to send only one value or the other, but not to have the SET follow the input that
controls it. For these situations, a
specific suffix letter
can be used to tell the Cortex which value to send. This is illustrated
in lines B and
C
of the image below.
Suffix “A“ (for Active) will only allow the active value to be sent when the controlling input toggles into an active state, while
the letter “N“ (for Normal) will only allow the normal value to be sent when the controlling input returns to a normal state.
Based on a particular equipment’s SNMP I/O requirements, it may be necessary to use different values for the “Value when
Normal” and the “Value when Active” in order to make the proper setting in this equipment.
