OUTLET MANAGED PDU

12.2.Testing the SNMP Trap Function

After you have finished setting up the SNMP Trap function, it is recommended to test the configuration to ensure that it is working correctly. To test configuration of the SNMP Trap function, proceed as follows:

1.Configure the SNMP Trap function as described in Section 12.1.

2.Access the Text Interface command mode using an account that permits Administrator level commands, then invoke the "/TEST" command at the command prompt. Note that the /TEST Command is only available in Administrator Mode.

3.Select Item 1 or 2 to send an SNMP test trap to Manager 1 or 2, respectively. It is possible that the ARP table will not be properly setup. If this occurs a message to that effect is displayed and the Outlet Managed PDU immediately refreshes the ARP table. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to try again.

For more information on the /TEST command, please refer to Section 11.2.
