7.4 Configuring SNMP Traps
Use the SNMP Trap Configuration screen to enable or disable trap generation individually or by functional group. It is also used for modifying the existing threshold conditions values for individual trap descriptions. The SNMP Trap Configuration window consists of the following tabs:
•Enabling Trap Configuration
•Configuring Trap Thresholds
7.4.1Enabling Trap Configuration
If unsure whether to enable a specific trap, select it and view a brief description that may help your decision. Use Expand all items to explode each trap category and view all the traps that can be enabled. Traps can either be enabled by group or as individual traps within each parent category.
To configure SNMP trap definitions:
1.Select Management Access > SNMP Trap Configuration from the main menu tree.
2.Select the Allow Traps to be generated checkbox to enable the selection (and employment) of traps within the screen. Leaving the checkbox unselected renders the trap selection
3.Refer to trap categories within the Configuration screen to determine whether traps should be enabled by group or individually enabled within parent groups.
