Configuring the SNMPv3 Notify Table

This section contains a description of the SNMPv3 Notify Table Menu
and how to create, delete, and modify table entries. The Configure
SNMPv3 Notify Table Menu allows you to define a name for sending
traps. In each Notify Table entry, you define if the switch sends a trap or
an inform message. The two message types, trap and inform, have
different packet formats.

For each Notify group, you can configure:

❑ Notify Name

❑ Notify Tag

❑ Notify Type

❑ Storage Type

The value of the Notify Tag is linked with the Tag List parameter in the
Configure SNMPv3 Target Address Table Menu. After you configure a
value for the Notify Tag parameter, you use the same value in the Target
List parameter that is located on the Target Address Table Menu. As a
result of this connection between the two tables, the Notify Tag
parameter assigns a Target IP address to the Notify Table internally.

There are three functions you can perform with the Configure SNMPv3
Notify Table Menu.
