High Availability Fabric Manager User Guide

You can configure network addresses and community names for up to 12 SNMP
trap recipients, which receive messages through SNMP for specific events that
occur on the HAFM server.

When configuring SNMP, you can configure just the community names of valid
SNMP management stations. In this case, you do not need to fill in the Trap
Recipient
column or the UDP Port Number column.

To configure and enable SNMP traps, use the following steps:

1. Choose Configure > SNMP Agent.

The Configure SNMP dialog box displays (

Figure 36

).

2. Click in the Community Name column and enter the SNMP community

name for a trap recipient. This name defines the community name that SNMP
managers use for reading variables from or writing variables to the HAFM
server. This name must be 64 characters or less.

To modify existing fields in this dialog box, click in the field and enter your
changes.

3. Select the Write Authorization check box to grant or deny the configured

SNMP management station write authorization. When this option is selected,
an administrator at an SNMP management station has write permissions for
writable MIB objects on the HAFM server.

4. Click in the Trap Recipient column, and enter the IP address or DNS host

name for a trap recipient (SNMP management station). This must be 64
characters or less.
