SNMP Notifications
The Notifications option gives you access to the SNMP Notifications page.
Figure 4-9. SNMP Notifications
This page allows you to view and modify information in the SNMP Notify Table,
SNMP Notify Filter Profile Table, and the SNMP Notify Filter Table.
In the descriptions that follow, each of the three tables is explained briefly. Then,
examples of SNMP notification and filtering are explained in order to show how the
tables on this web page and the tables on the previous web page are interrelated.
After explaining the general process, instructions are given on how to modify each
of the three tables on this web page.
SNMP Notify Table
This table allows you to set up individual SNMP Notifications and specify the target
addresses from the SNMP Target Addresses Table that should receive the
notifications.
First, an application determines that a certain condition has been met that requires
an SNMP notification to be sent out. This condition has a name associated with it
and it is this name that is used to index into the SNMP Notify Table.
Then, the tag value from this row in the SNMP Notify Table is used to determine all
entries in the SNMP Target Addresses Table, which have this tag value listed in
their tag list. Each match determines a target address that should receive the
notification.
