3. Click on Apply to add the new entry.
SNMP Notify Filter Table and SNMP Notify Filter Profile Table
These two tables allow you to set up filtering options for each entry in the SNMP
Target Parameters Table. The SNMP Notify Filter Profile Table links entries in the
SNMP Target Parameters Table to entries in the SNMP Notify Filter Table.
When a notification is to be generated and the target addresses that should
receive the notification have been identified, the notification generator then checks
parameters for the each target address in the SNMP Parameters Table.
For each entry that is in the SNMP Target Parameters Table, the notification
generator checks to see if there is an index in the SNMP Notify Filter Profile equal
to the name of the entry in the SNMP Target Parameters Table. If not, filtering is
not performed. If an entry does exist, that SNMP Notify Filter Profile Table entry is
used to index into the SNMP Notify Filter Table.
A row in the SNMP Notify Filter Table defines a family of MIB subtrees. It does this
by using the subtree, mask and type objects. A MIB object plus all objects that are
under it define a MIB subtree.
Field Description
