2.1.2 Transponder Configuration File
The transponder’s CM, at first power-up or reset command, requests a configuration file
from the TFTP server. The file must contain the IP address of the SNMP manager. It
may also contain up to five additional SNMP trap recipients. The SNMP manager will
be the only device that can perform SNMP set/get/get-next commands. The trap
recipients and SNMP manager receive the same traps generated by the transponder.
