Unsupported Devices Discovered devices generating SNMP traps that cannot be
decoded (have no event code definitions) are called unsupported devices and these
include the following:

Host computers

Network Attached Storage (NAS) elements with the exception of NetApp
Filer devices

Hubs

Modular Data Routers (MDR)

Only the following information is available for an SNMP trap received from an
unsupported device.

Specific trap type

When the Storage Management Appliance receives a trap from an unsupported
device, the SMA generates an event (event code 880A02BC; severity -
Information), which includes the basic trap information plus the date and time. A
Storage Management Appliance Administrator can then enable notifications of
this event type.
