Using SNMP

Quick Steps for Setting Up Trap Filters

 

 

 

 

Filtering by Individual Traps

The following example enables trap filtering for the coldstart, warmstart, linkup, and linkdown traps. The identification numbers for these traps are 0, 1, 2, and 3. When trap filtering is enabled, these traps will be filtered. This means that the switch will not pass them through to the SNMP management station. All other traps will be passed through.

1Specify the IP address for the SNMP management station and the trap identification numbers.

-> show snmp trap filter 210.1.2.1 0 1 2 3

Note. Optional. You can verify which traps will not pass through the filter by entering the snmp trap filter command. The display is similar to the one shown here:

-> show snmp trap filter

ipAddress

trapId list

-----------------

+----------------------------------------

210.1.2.10 1 2 3

The SNMP management station with the IP address of 210.1.2.1 will not receive trap numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3.

For trap numbers refer to the “SNMP Traps Table” on page 10-9. For more information on the CLI commands and the displays in these examples, refer to the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.

Alcatel Carrier Internetworking Solutions offers the OmniSwitch series, renowned for its robust capabilities in delivering high-performance networking solutions tailored for a variety of enterprise and service provider environments. The OmniSwitch series is particularly recognized for its scalability, flexibility, and the depth of its feature set, making it a popular choice for organizations that demand reliable and efficient networking solutions.

One of the standout features of the OmniSwitch series is its advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities, providing organizations with essential support for IP routing and robust Ethernet networking. This versatility ensures that the switch can seamlessly integrate into existing network architectures, facilitating smooth upgrade paths in response to evolving business needs. The OmniSwitch includes support for multiple protocols like RIP, OSPF, and BGP, making it suitable for complex networking topologies.

In terms of performance, OmniSwitch devices are engineered to handle high bandwidth demands. With features such as hardware-based forwarding, they ensure low latency and minimal packet loss, which are critical for applications sensitive to delays such as VoIP and video conferencing. Furthermore, they support Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing users to power devices like IP phones and security cameras directly through the network.

Security is another key characteristic of the OmniSwitch series. It includes advanced security features such as robust access control lists (ACLs), port security, and built-in support for IEEE 802.1X authentication. These features collectively enhance the security posture of the network, protecting sensitive data and ensuring that only authorized devices can access the network resources.

The OmniSwitch is also designed with redundancy and reliability in mind. Features like Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) ensure that network uptime is maximized and that failover is swift in the event of a hardware failure. This makes it a viable option for organizations that cannot afford downtime.

In addition to these features, Alcatel's OmniSwitch series comes equipped with a user-friendly management interface. This interface simplifies the setup, configuration, and monitoring of the network, making it accessible even to those with limited networking expertise. Through intuitive dashboards and support for SNMP, administrators can manage their networks effectively.

In conclusion, Alcatel Carrier Internetworking Solutions' OmniSwitch series offers a comprehensive suite of features tailored to meet the needs of modern networks. With its blend of performance, scalability, security, and ease of management, the OmniSwitch stands out as a preferred choice for businesses seeking to enhance their networking infrastructure.
