Nortel Networks TP-1610 SIP Multiple Snmp Trap Destinations, Configuration via the ini File

Mediant 2000 SIP

11.6.4 Multiple SNMP Trap Destinations

An agent can now send traps to up to five managers. For each manager, set the following parameters defined in the snmpManagersTable in the acBoardMIB:

•snmpTrapManagerSending

•snmpManagerIsUsed

•snmpManagerTrapPort

•snmpManagerIP

When snmpManagerIsUsed is set to zero (not used), the other three parameters are set to zero.

•snmpManagerIsUsed (Default = Disable(0))

The allowed values are 0 (disable or no) and 1 (enable or yes).

•snmpManagerIp (Default = 0.0.0.0)

This is known as SNMPMANAGERTABLEIP in the ini file and is the IP address of the manager.

•SnmpManagerTrapPort (Default = 162) The valid port range for this is 100-4000.

•snmpManagerTrapSendingEnable (Default = Enable(1)) The allowed values are 0 (disable) and 1 (enable).

Note 1: Each of these MIB objects is independent and can be set regardless of the state of snmpManagerIsUsed.

Note 2: If the parameter IsUsed is set to 1, the IP address for that row should be supplied in the same SNMP PDU.

11.6.4.1 Configuration via the ini File

In the Mediant 2000 ini file, the parameters below can be set to enable or disable the sending of SNMP traps. Multiple trap destinations can be supported on the device by setting multiple trap destinations in the ini file.

SNMPMANAGERTRAPSENDINGENABLE_<x> = 0 or 1 indicates if traps are to be sent to the specified SNMP trap manager. A value of ‘1’ means that it is enabled, while a value of ‘0’ means disabled.

<x> = a number 0, 1, 2 which is the array element index. Currently, up to 5 SNMP trap managers can be supported.

Figure 11-1presents an example of entries in a device ini file regarding SNMP. The device can be configured to send to multiple trap destinations. The lines in the file below are commented out with the ‘;’ at the beginning of the line. All of the lines below are commented out since the first line character is a semi-colon.
