Enabling and Disabling Link Traps

Link traps are generated to management stations in the MicroMMAC-T’s Trap Table when stations insert into the ring (i.e., the port status on the MicroMMAC-T changes from ENB to INS) or remove themselves from the ring (i.e., the port status changes from INS to ENB). By default, these traps are disabled at a station to reduce the amount of management traffic on your network. You can use NetSight Element Manager to enable these traps for a selected station, so that you can more fully view its network activity.

The Link Trap window (Figure 2-16) allows you to view the current state of link traps for the selected port, and allows you to either enable or disable link traps for the port.

To enable or disable link traps for a selected port:

1.Click on the desired Port index on a module display in the Chassis View window. The Port pull-down menu will appear.

2.Click on Link Trap.... The Link Trap window, Figure 2-16, will appear.
