SNMP Trap
Description
coldStart
A coldStart trap indicates that the sending protocol entity (i.e.,
the Makito
X) has re-initialized itself and is ready to operate.
The coldStart trap is generated when the Makito
X is powered
on.
It is developed in accordance with RFC 1215 - MIB.
linkDown or
linkUp
A linkDown trap signifies that the sending protocol entity (i.e.,
the Makito
X) recognizes a failure in one of the communication
links represented in the SNMP agent’s configuration.
A linkUp trap signifies that the sending protocol entity
recognizes that one of the communication links represented in
the SNMP agent’s configuration has come up.
These traps are generated when the Ethernet interface goes
down or up.
These traps are developed in accordance with RFC 1215 - MIB.
