Groups
There are seven alarm groups that can be enabled or disabled:
•Enable Configuration Alarms
•Enable Security Alarms
•Enable Wireless Alarms
•Enable Operational Alarms
•Enable Flash Memory Alarms
•Enable TFTP Alarms
•Enable Image Alarms
Place a check mark in the box provided to enable a specific group. Remove the check mark from the box to disable the
alarms.
These alarm groups correspond to System Alarms that are displayed in the Web browser interface’s System Status
screen and to traps that are sent by the AP to the SNMP managers specified in the Alarm Host Table.
See System Alarms (Traps) for the list of alarms contained in each group.

4. Enter the SNMP password (or community string) for the manager’s trap group in the Password and Confirm
fields.
5. Enter an optional comment, such as the alarm (trap) host station name.
6. Click OK.
7. Click the back arrow button to return to the previous screen.
