Configuring Trap Managers via ini File

In the ini file, the following parameters can be set to enable or disable the sending of SNMP traps. Multiple trap destinations can be supported on the device by setting multiple trap destinations in the ini file.

■

SNMPManagerTrapSendingEnable_<x>: indicates whether or not traps are to be sent to the specified SNMP trap manager. A value of ‘1’ means that it is enabled, while a value of ‘0’ means disabled. The <x> represents a number 0, 1, or 2, which is the array element index. Currently, up to five SNMP trap managers is supported.

■

SNMPManagerTrapUser_<x>: indicates to send an SNMPv2 trap using the trap user community string configured with the SNMPTrapCommunityString parameter. You may instead specify an SNMPv3 user name.

The following is an example of entries in the ini file regarding SNMP. The device can be configured to send to multiple trap destinations.

; SNMP trap destinations
; The device maintains a table of trap destinations containing 5
; rows. The rows are numbered 0..4. Each block of 5 items below
; applies to a row in the table.
;
; To configure one of the rows, uncomment all 5 lines in that
; block. Supply an IP address and if necessary, change the port
; number.
;
; To delete a trap destination, set ISUSED to 0.

;SNMPTrapManagerHostName = 'myMananger.corp.MyCompany.com'
