Trap categories and required administrative privileges
In general, users with Domain privileges can manage any SNMP operations. Users with Network privileges
can manage Ethernet operations, and users with Storage privileges can manage FC operations. The
following table provides a summary of trap categories and the required administrative privileges.
Trap Category Domain Network Storage

VC-Enet Port Threshold X X —
VC-Enet Other X X —
VC-FC Port Status X — X
VC-FC Other X — X

To enable or disable SNMP on a VC-Enet module, Domain or Network privileges are required. To enable or
disable SNMP/SMI-S on a VC-FC module, Domain or Storage privileges are required.
Trap severities
Users can configure the severity of traps to be sent to each trap destination. The levels are listed below in
decreasing order of severity:
• CRITICAL—The component cannot manage installed VC components.
• MAJOR—One or more of the component's subsystems are not operating properly, causing serious
disruption to functions.
• MINOR—One or more of a component's subsystems are not operating properly, causing slight
disruption to functions.
• WARNING—The component has a potential problem.
• INFO—Operational information on the fully functioning component.
• UNKNOWN—VC Manager has not yet established communication with the component.
• NORMAL—The component is fully functional.
Trap severities are only supported for VC-Enet or VCM traps.
SNMP Configuration (VC-Enet)
By enabling SNMP for VC-Enet modules, network management systems can monitor VC-Enet modules in the
domain for events, such as warnings and errors, that might require corrective actions. The user must have
network or domain administrator privileges to administer SNMP Enet settings.
