Managing Ethernet MicroLAN Modules
5-28 Trap Selection
To enable or disable the above-described traps:
1. Open the appropriate Trap Selection window.
2. Click on the check box next to the desired trap: Link State, Segmentation,
or Source Address.
An empty check box indicates that the corresponding trap is disabled;
A checked box indicates that the corresponding trap is enabled;
A check box that remains gray indicates that the associated trap will
not
be
set (to either enabled or disabled), and the current mode of mixed settings at
the port level will be maintained.
3. Click on the Apply button. The device will now issue, or stop issuing, the
indicated traps to your management workstation. Keep in mind, however, that
no traps will be issued to your management station unless the Ethernet
MicroLAN module’s trap table has been properly configured via Local
Management. Consult your Local Management documentation for more
information.
4. Click on the Cancel button to exit the window; note that clicking on the
Cancel button before clicking on the Apply button will close the window
without making any changes.
TIP
When you are setting repeater- or module-level traps, we recommend that you leave the
gray “No SET” status untouched (especially for So urce Addressing Traps) unless you are
sure you want to override port-level settings. With no incoming traps to inform you of a
port security violation, you may have ports that are disabled on your device for no
obvious reason.
