Configuring
Trap
Parameters

Use the following CLI commands to display and configure SNMP
trap parameters:

config sys snmp trap info

config sys snmp trap port

config sys snmp trap create

community

config sys snmp trap delete

community

By default, the UDP port used for sending traps is 162. The trap port
can be changed to a number between 5020 and 65535, or left at 162.

The SA9200 SNMP agent can send trap notifications to up to ten
configured trap receivers. Each IP address configured as a trap
receiver is associated with a community string included in traps sent
to that IP address. For example:

config sys snmp trap create 209.218.240.5

community NOC1

This command causes traps to be sent to IP address 209.218.240.5,
and causes the SA9200 SNMP agent to put the community string
NOC1 in the trap.
