SNMP Traps
3.
SNMP Trap Parameters:
Access the SNMP Trap Parameters Menu as described in
Section 5.9.7. Set the following:
a)
SNMP Managers 1 and 2:
The address(es) that will receive SNMP Traps
that are generated by one of the Alarms discussed in Section 7. Consult
your network administrator to determine the IP address(es) for the SNMP
Manager(s), then use the Network Parameters menu to set the IP address
for each SNMP Manager. Note that it is not necessary to define both SNMP
Managers.
Notes:
• To enable the SNMP Trap feature, you must define at least one SNMP
Manager. SNMP Traps are automatically enabled when at least one SNMP
Manager has been defined.
• The SNMP Trap submenu in the Text Interface includes a Ping Test function
that can be used to ping the user-selected SNMP Managers to verify that
a valid IP address has been entered. In order for the Ping Test feature to
function, your network and/or firewall must be configured to allow ping
commands.
b)
Trap Community:
Consult your network administrator, and then use the
Network Parameters menus to set the Trap Community.
Once SNMP Trap Parameters have been defined, the RSM-8R will send an SNMP Trap
each time an alarm is triggered.
