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

7.4.1 Enabling 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 un-configurable.

3. Refer to trap categories within the Configuration screen to determine whether traps should be enabled

by group or individually enabled within parent groups.
