Configuring the syslog message destinations

The SNMP traps are unreliable because the trap recipient does not send any acknowledgment
when it receives a trap. Therefore, the SNMP agent cannot determine if the trap was received.
Brocade switches send traps out on UDP port 162. To receive traps, the management station IP
address must be configured on the switch. You can configure the SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 hosts to
receive the traps.
For more information on the swEventTrap, refer to the Fabric OS MIB Reference.
Configuring the SNMPv1 trap recipient
Use the snmpConfig
--
set snmpv1 command to specify the recipient of the SNMP trap. To
configure the SNMPv1 host to receive the trap, perform the following steps.
1. Log in to the switch as admin.
2. Execute the snmpConfig
--
set snmpv1 command to configure the SNMP trap recipient.
switch:admin> snmpconfig --set snmpv1
