system (Management Card) events which have no severity level

 

assigned will still be logged.

SNMP Traps action

By default, the SNMP Traps action is enabled for all informational,

 

warning, and severe events. However, before you can use SNMP traps

 

for event notifications, you must identify the trap receivers (up to four),

 

by their specific IP addresses.

 

For information about how to define the trap receivers, see Event

 

Recipients on page 55.

Email action

By default, the Email action is enabled for severe events only. However,

 

before you can use Email for event notifications, you must define the
