User's Manual 8. SNMP-Based Management
8.3 Configuring SNMP Trap Destinations with IP
Addresses
The SNMP Trap Destinations table lets you to configure up to five SNMP trap managers to
receive traps sent by the device. The SNMP manager is defined by IP address and port.
You can associate a trap destination with SNMPv2 users and specific SNMPv3 users.
Associating a trap destination with SNMPv3 users sends encrypted and authenticated
traps to the SNMPv3 destination. By default, traps are sent unencrypted using SNMPv2.
The following procedure describes how to configure SNMP trap destinations through the
Web interface. You can also configure it through ini file (SNMPManager) or CLI (configure
system > snmp trap-destination).
To configure SNMP trap destinations:
1. Open the SNMP Trap Destinations table (Setup menu > Administration tab > SNMP
folder > SNMP Trap Destinations).
Figure 8-1: SNMP Trap Destinations Table
2. Configure the SNMP trap manager according to the table below.
3. Select the check boxes corresponding to the configured SNMP managers that you
want to enable.
4. Click Apply.
Note:
• Rows whose corresponding check boxes are cleared revert to default settings
when you click Apply.
• To enable the sending of the trap event,
acPerformanceMonitoringThresholdCrossing, which is sent every time a threshold
(high or low) of a performance monitored SNMP object is crossed, configure the
ini file parameter PM_EnableThresholdAlarms to 1.
• Instead of configuring SNMP trap managers with an IP address in dotted-decimal
notation, you can configure a single SNMP trap manager with an FQDN (see
''Configuring an SNMP Trap Destination with FQDN'' on page 100.
