The fields ‘Location’, ‘Contact’ and ‘Name’ describe the common SNMP-parameters (sysLocation,
sysContact and sysName) supported by every SNMP device. These details help you to find and
identify SNMP devices like the ENC-3

The SNMP elements use traps as SNMP base messages to report changes in status or alarm
conditions to remote SNMP management entities. Normally traps are used to alarm network
administrators of possible equipment problems or other important events. There are two types of
information sent by the trap device: ‘Events’ and ‘Alarms’.
‘Event’ traps will be sent if a monitored event occurs. These traps have only one state.
‘Alarm’ traps are events that have two states: Active and Clear. An ‘Active’ trap will be sent if an alarm
condition will be detected. The alarm will be kept active until the condition cleared and a ‘Clear’ trap
was send.
