You can create a trap that SNMP agents must send to the SNMP manager.
To create a trap:
In the menu, go to the Infrastructure section.
This opens the resource management page. By default, the Network resources tab is selected, which displays the table of controllers.
Click Management → Configuration menu next to the controller to which the components that you want to monitor are connected.
This opens the controller configuration menu. By default, you are taken to the Controller nodes section, which displays a table of controller nodes.
Go to the SNMP section.
A table of traps is displayed.
Under Trap parameters, click Edit.
This opens a window; in that window, click + Add to create a trap.
In the Manager IP field, enter the IP address or host name of the SNMP manager. Range of values: 1 to 255.
In the Manager port field, enter the port number of the SNMP manager. Range of values: 1 to 65,534. The default setting is 162.
In the Community field, enter the SNMP community string. The SNMP community string is used as a password which the SNMP manager uses to connect to SNMP agents. The default setting is public, which provides read-only access. We recommend changing the default to a unique community string to ensure the security of communication between the SNMP manager and the SNMP agents.
You must specify the same SNMP community string when configuring the SNMP manager connection to SNMP agents and when creating or editing traps.
In the Allowed traps field, click Edit and clear the following check boxes to specify which traps SNMP agents do not send to the SNMP manager:
Clear the Trap, when an interface is active check box to prevent the SNMP agent from sending a trap to the SNMP manager when one of the ports of the component on which the SNMP agent is installed becomes active.
Clear the Trap, when an interface is inactive check box to prevent the SNMP agent from sending a trap to the SNMP manager when one of the ports of the component on which the SNMP agent is installed becomes inactive.
Clear the Trap, when an equipment is active check box to prevent the SNMP agent from sending a trap to the SNMP manager when the component on which the SNMP agent is installed becomes active.
Clear the Trap, when an equipment is inactive check box to prevent the SNMP agent from sending a trap to the SNMP manager when the component on which the SNMP agent is installed becomes inactive.
By default, the check boxes are selected.
Click Back to continue specifying trap settings.
In the Description field, enter a brief description of the trap.
