492 Monitoring the security gateway
Alerting using notifications
Configuring SNMP1 notifications
SNMPv1 notifications contain a community field, which is a text string holding a value agreed upon
between a manager and the agents that it manages. The security gateway and any SNMPv1 managers
with which it communicates must both be configured to accept the same community string. The
administrator of the SNMP management station can assign a community value for the security
gateway to use.
Consult the SNMP management documentation for its configuration information. Configuration and
modification information for SNMPv1 traps is found in your product’s administrator’s guide.
