SNMP Traps
PRISM supports SNMP only for alarms (traps). PRISM supports a single trap prefix
(prismTrap), which can be seen in the Video signal lost sample. The SNMP configuration
is created through the RESTful API.
•
The alarm is identified in the SNMP trap payload.
•
The PRISM SNMP MIB is provided in the file prism_mon.mib file, which can be
downloaded from the PRISM web page.
•
SNMP trap destination address is set with RESTful API using post operation,
through Postman or a similar application.
•
The alarms generated in the PRISM are sent to the destination trap receiver as
SNMP trap.
•
Users must have a trap receiver running on the destination machine and the IP
address of the PRISM (snmpAgent) need to be configured on the destination.
