Trap Selection
Accessing the Trap Selection window; link state traps, segmentation traps, and source address traps
defined; enabling and disabling traps
Among the traps which Enterasys and Cabletron devices are designed to generate
are traps which indicate when a repeater port gains or loses a link signal (Link
State Traps); when the repeater segments (disconnects) a port due to collision
activity, and when a segmented port becomes active again (Segmentation Traps);
and several traps that result from changes in a port’s Source Address Table
(Source Address Traps). In some networks, these traps may be more information
than a network manager wants to see. With the Trap Selection option available
from the Repeater menu, you can enable or disable these traps at all ports on the
device.
Any traps issued by the IRM2 will appear in your Enterasys remote management
application’s alarm logging facility. (Refer to your Alarm and Event Handling
User’s Guide
for more details.)
Accessing the Trap Selection Windows
To open the repeater-level Trap Selection window from the Chassis View:
1. Click on Repeater on the Chassis View menu bar, drag down to the
appropriate repeater selection, then right to reveal the Repeater menu.
NOTE
In order for your device to issue any traps — and in order for your management
workstation to receive those traps — your IRM2’s trap table must have been properly
configured via Local Management; see the IRM2 hardware manual or Local Management
documentation for more information.
Note also that some older Enterasys and Cabletron devices and/or firmware versions,
including the IRM2, do not support Source Address traps.
