Configuring SNMP Traps

A trap is an unsolicited message that is sent from the DSU/CSU to an SNMP
manager when the DSU/CSU detects certain pre-specified conditions. These
traps enable the SNMP manager to monitor the state of the network.

The SNMP Trap configuration option must be enabled for trap messages to be
sent over the communications link. You must specify the number of SNMP
managers that are to receive traps from this DSU/CSU, an IP address for each
SNMP manager specified, and the type of traps to be sent from this DSU/CSU. For
more information, refer to

Appendix C, Configuration Options

, and

in

Chapter 7, Monitoring and Troubleshooting.
