Configuring Switch Alarms
How to Configure Switch Alarms
SNMP is an application-layer protocol that provides a message format for communication between managers and
agents. The SNMP system consists of an SNMP manager, an SNMP agent, and a management information base
(MIB).
The snmp-server enable traps command can be changed so that the user can send alarm traps to an SNMP server.
You can use alarm profiles to set environmental or port status alarm conditions to send SNMP alarm traps. See
Enabling SNMP Traps, page 54 for more information.
Syslog Messages
You can use alarm profiles to send system messages to a syslog server. See Configuring the Power Supply Alarms,
page 51 for more information.
