Adding an SNMP trap destination
To add an SNMP trap destination, right-click the header row of the SNMP Trap Destination table, or click
Add Destination at the bottom of the SNMP Trap Destination table.
1. Enter a unique name for the new trap being added. No spaces are allowed.
2. Enter the IPv4 address or DNS name for the trap destination. DNS is not supported for VC-FC modules.
3. Select the Trap Format: SNMPv1 or SNMPv2. SNMPv2 is not supported for VC-FC modules.
4. Enter the SNMP trap community string for the specified trap. The default is "public."
For VC-Enet modules, the maximum trap community string length is 39.
For VC-FC modules, the maximum trap community string length is 24.
5. Click OK to save the information and return to the main SNMP configuration screen, or continue and
select trap categories or trap severities.
If you enter information that is invalid (for example, if you use a space in the Destination name), a red box
appears around that field. Mouse over the box to see information regarding the error.
Select trap categories
Selecting a trap category allows multiple traps to be enabled or disabled as a group.
To select trap categories, click the checkbox. For VC-FC modules, selecting either the Port Status or Other
checkbox results in all SNMP traps being sent to the trap destination. VC-FC modules do not differentiate
between trap types. To select a VCM trap category, do one of the following:
• Highlight the item, and then click the right arrow.
• Highlight the item, and then drag and drop it into the right window.
