The Trap Table contains three modifiable fields. The fields, shown in Figure 8-1, allow the user to direct trap information to users on the network. The three fields are:

SNMP Community Name

Displays the community name associated with the network management station IP address to which the EMM-E6 sends trap messages.

Traps

Displays whether or not the EMM-E6 sends traps to the network management station with the associated IP address.

Trap IP Address

Indicates the IP address of the workstation to receive trap alarms from the EMM-E6.

8.3CONFIGURING THE TRAP TABLE

4.Using the arrow keys, highlight the Traps field and enter Y to send alarms from the EMM-E6 to that workstation, or N to prevent the EMM-E6 from sending alarms to that workstation.
