SNMP Trap Usage:
SNMP traps enable notifications from devices. Devices may send message to the
management server whenever significant events occur such as cold start, warm start
and authentication failure. The manager will get the information immediately and take
action if necessary.
Cold start means device reboot by power disconnection. Warm start means device
reboot by firmware without power disconnection. If there other parties attempt to
connect to the device with wrong security password under SNMP V1, V2 or V3 setting,
the device will send an authentication failure message to the management server.
To enable SNMP Trap function in the camera, type the IP address of the computer
running the SNMP management software and type trap community as password to allow
server to get trap message from device (Default is public). Select available traps and
click
