Table C-8. Alarm Configuration Options (2 of 4)

SNMP Trap: Disab
Next Enab Disab Prev
SNMP Trap Enable. Specifies whether SNMP trap messages are sent over the SNMP
management link.
Enab – Enables sending SNMP trap messages from this unit over any SNMP
management link.
Disab – Disables sending SNMP trap messages from this unit over any SNMP
management link.
NOTE: For carrier-mounted DSU/CSUs that have the communication port enabled,
the only traps that are disabled are those that pertain to this particular unit.
Traps from other units are passed through.
Trap Disc: Enab
Next Enab Disab Prev
SNMP Trap Disconnect. Specifies whether the modem connection or carrier external
communication port device connection is disconnected after sending a trap message.
This configuration option applies only to modem connections or carrier external
communication port device connections initiated as a result of the trap message being
sent.
Enab – Specifies that the modem call or carrier external communication port device call
is disconnected after a trap message is sent.
Disab – Specifies that the modem call or carrier external communication port device call
is not disconnected after a trap message is sent. The line is held until it is manually
disconnected or disconnected by the remote modem.
NOTE: This configuration option is only available if SNMP traps are enabled and
the integral modem or the carrier external communication port device is
enabled and configured as an SNMP management link.
DialOut: Disab
Next Enab Disab Prev
Alarm and Trap Dial Out. Controls whether generated alarm or trap messages initiate a
call if the integral modem connection or carrier external communication port device
connection has not already been established. When enabled, a call is placed to the
phone number contained in the alarm directory (directory A). If the call cannot be
completed and the retry option is enabled, the alarm or trap message is held until the
call is completed or has been retried unsuccessfully once. If more than one alarm
message is received while waiting for a call retry, only the highest priority alarm
message received is held; all previous messages are discarded. When the modem port
is configured as the SNMP management link, up to 10 SNMP trap messages can be
queued at the interface.
Enab – Enables automatic call initiation (dial out) if an alarm or trap message needs to
be sent.
Disab – Disables automatic call initiation. Trap messages sent to the modem port or
carrier external communication port device are queued (held) if an integral modem
connection or carrier external communication port device connection has not been
previously established. Alarm messages are not queued.
NOTE: For carrier-mounted DSU/CSUs, this configuration option is only available if
the communication port is enabled for an external device.
