Overview of SNMP Support by Terminal Servers
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a TCP/IP protocol for network management. It allows compliant devices to be configured and/or to send error messages to Network Management software packages.
The terminal server can send SNMP traps based on alarm conditions detected in host devices or in the terminal server itself. Any alarm condition that can be listed in the Action Table can be sent to a management system via an SNMP Trap. Thus, the terminal server acts as an SNMP trap proxy agent for devices that deliver alarms via asynchronous
