System Configuration 4-25
4.4.2 Enabling SNMP Traps
SNMP provides the ability to send traps to notify the administrator that trap conditions are met. Traps
are network packets containing data relating to network devices, or SNMP agents, that send the
traps. SNMP management applications can receive and interpret these packets, and optionally can
perform responsive actions. SNMP trap generation is programmable on a trap-by-trap basis.
Use the SNMP Traps Configuration screen to enable traps and to configure appropriate settings
for reporting this information. Trap configuration depends on the network machine that receives the
generated traps. SNMP v1/v2c and v3 trap configurations function independently. In a mixed SNMP
environment, generated traps can be sent using configurations for both SNMP v1/v2c and v3.
To configure SNMP traps on the AP-5131:
1. Select System Configuration - > SNMP Access - > SNMP Trap Configuration from the
AP-5131 menu tree.
OK Click Ok to return to the SNMP Access screen. Click Apply within
the SNMP Access screen to save any changes made on the SNMP
Access Control screen.
Cancel Click Cancel to undo any changes made on the SNMP Access
Control screen. This reverts all settings for this screen to the last
saved configuration.
