Configure an SNMP Community String for Traps
Configuring the G700 Media Gateway to send SNMP traps to the primary server can be accomplished by
two commands:
•P330 stack processor CLI command set snmp community trap [community string]
•Media Gateway Processor (MGP) CLI command set snmp trap <IP address> enable
SNMP requires community strings to be used for each SNMP ’request’. You can set only three
community strings on the G700 — one each for read requests, write requests, and traps. The command
for traps is:
set snmp community trap [community string].
1Telnet to the P330 stack processor.
2Log in as root.
3At the P330-1(super)# prompt, type set snmp community trap [community string] and press
Enter.

Configure the Destination for G700 SNMP Traps
Events occurring on the G700 cause SNMP traps to be generated. The G700 MGP can be c onfigured to
send SNMP traps to any network management system (NMS) in the network, including the primary
server (S8300, S8500, or S8700). The MGP CLI set snmp trap command is the way to configure the
NMS network element that will receive those traps.
The command syntax is:
set SNMP trap <IP address> {enable|disable}
[{all|power|temp|app|module|config|voice|operations}]
where <IP address> is the IP address of the NMS trap receiver that will be receiving the traps
from the G700, and
[{all|power|temp|app|module|config|voice|operations}] indicates the groups whose traps will
be sent to the specified receiver. If no keywords follow the IP address entry, then ’all’ traps will be
enabled for the specified receiver.
If ’enable’ or ’disable’ is used without a trap designation keyword, then ’all’ traps is assumed. Up
to ten trap receivers can be configured.
1At the P330-1(super)# prompt, type session mgp
