Using SNMP SNMP Overview

SNMP Traps Table

The following table provides information on all SNMP traps supported by the switch. Each row includes the trap name, its ID number, any objects (if applicable), its command family, and a description of the condition the SNMP agent in the switch is reporting to the SNMP management station. You can generate a list of SNMP traps that are supported on your switch by using the show snmp trap config command.

No.	Trap Name	Objects	Family	Description
0	coldStart	none	chassis	The SNMP agent in the switch is
				reinitiating and its configuration
				may have been altered.
1	warmStart	none	chassis	The SNMP agent in the switch is
				reinitiating itself and its configu-
				ration is unaltered.
2	linkDown	IfIndex	interface	The SNMP agent in the switch
		ifAdminStatus		recognizes a failure in one of the
		ifOperStatus		communications links configured
				for the switch.

IfIndex—A unique value, greater than zero, for each interface. It is recommended that values are assigned con- tiguously starting from 1. The value for each interface sub-layer must remain constant at least from one re-ini- tialization of the entity’s network management system to the next re-initialization.

ifAdminStatus—The desired state of the interface. The testing(3) state indicates that no operational packets can be passed. When a managed system initializes, all interfaces start with ifAdminStatus in the down(2) state. As a result of either explicit management action or per configuration information retained by the managed sys- tem, ifAdminStatus is then changed to either the up(1) or testing(3) states (or remains in the down(2) state). ifOperStatus—The current operational state of the interface. The testing(3) state indicates that no operational packets can be passed. If ifAdminStatus is down(2) then ifOperStatus should be down(2). If ifAdminStatus is changed to up(1) then ifOperStatus should change to up(1) if the interface is ready to transmit and receive net- work traffic; it should change to dormant(5) if the interface is waiting for external actions (such as a serial line waiting for an incoming connection); it should remain in the down(2) state if and only if there is a fault that pre- vents it from going to the up(1) state; it should remain in the notPresent(6) state if the interface has missing (typically, hardware) components.

3	linkUp	ifIndex	interface	The SNMP agent in the switch
		ifAdminStatus		recognizes that one of the com-
		ifOperStatus		munications links configured for
				the switch has come up.

IfIndex—A unique value, greater than zero, for each interface. It is recommended that values are assigned con- tiguously starting from 1. The value for each interface sub-layer must remain constant at least from one re-ini- tialization of the entity's network management system to the next re-initialization.

The testing(3) state indicates that no operational packets can be passed. If ifAdminStatus is down(2) then ifOperStatus should be down(2). If ifAdminStatus is changed to up(1) then ifOperStatus should change to up(1) if the interface is ready to transmit and receive net- work traffic; it should change to dormant(5) if the interface is waiting for external actions (such as a serial line waiting for an incoming connection); it should remain in the down(2) state if and only if there is a fault that pre- vents it from going to the up(1) state; it should remain in the notPresent(6) state if the interface has missing (typically, hardware) components.

4	authenticationFailure	none	snmp	The SNMP agent in the switch
				has received a protocol message
				that is not properly authenticated.
