Add or Apply/Cancel

To add this system to the list of SNMP trap destinations, click Add. Or to apply your changes to this trap destination, click Apply. Both actions include your entry in the active configuration. The Manager returns to the Configuration System Events Trap Destinations screen. Any new destination system appears in the Trap Destinations list.

Reminder:

To save the active configuration and make it the boot configuration, click the Save Needed icon at the top of the Manager window.

To discard your settings, click Cancel. The Manager returns to the Configuration System Events Trap Destinations screen, and the Trap Destinations list is unchanged.

Configuration System Events Syslog Servers

This section of the Manager lets you configure UNIX syslog servers as recipients of event messages. Syslog is a UNIX daemon, or background process, that records events. The VPN 3002 can send event messages in two syslog formats to configured syslog systems. If you configure any event handling, default or special, with values in Severity to Syslog fields, you must configure syslog servers in this section.

To configure default event handling and syslog formats, click the highlighted link that says “Click here to configure general event parameters.” To configure special event handling, see the Configuration System Events Classes screens.
