Configuring SNMP Trap Destinations

Although SNMP traps are generated for events that occur on the SP, you must configure where these traps are to be sent. There is no default destination for traps. You can use the server-management subcommands (see TABLE 3-2) on the SP to configure SNMP destinations.

For more information on these subcommands, refer to Appendix B.

Configuring SNMP Destinations

Administration- and manager-level users can define SNMP destinations to which SNMP events (alerts) will be sent using this option. All users can view the current destinations (using read-only access).

The number of destinations you can create is limited due to memory constraints.
