Setting Trap Notification

This option allows you to enable the WLSE to send north-bound exception notification to one or more SNMP trap receivers. The exception notification contains information such as device name and IP, fault number, timestamp, exception severity, and a message describing the problem.

The MIB that defines the trap and the varbinds can be found at the following URL: ftp://ftp.cisco.com/pub/mibs/v2/CISCO-DEVICE-EXCEPTION-REPORTING- MIB.my
