SNMP traps
Trap receivers. View trap receivers by NMS IP/Host Name. You can configure up to six trap receivers.
•To open the page for configuring a new trap receiver, click Add Trap Receiver.
•To modify or delete a trap receiver, first click its IP address or host name to access its settings. (If you delete a trap receiver, all notification settings configured under Event Actions for the deleted trap receiver are set to their default values.)
•To specify the trap type for a trap receiver, select either the SNMPv1 or SNMPv3 radio button. For a NMS to receive both types of traps, you must configure two trap receivers for that NMS, one for each trap type.
