Traps and Alarms

The device supports standard traps and proprietary traps. Most of the proprietary traps are alarm traps, that is, they can be sent and cleared. Thus, they are referred to as alarm traps. All the standard traps are non-alarm traps, referred to as log traps.

The proprietary traps are defined under the acBoardTrapDefinitions subtree.

The supported standard MIB traps include the following:

■

coldStart

■

authenticationFailure

■

linkDown

■

linkup

■

dsx1LineStatusChange

■

rtcpXrVoipThresholdViolation

■

dsx3LineStatusChange

■

entConfigChange

This subsection describes the device’s configuration so that traps are sent out to user-defined managers under SNMPv2c or SNMPv3. It continues with an explanation on the ‘carrier grade alarm’ abilities and usage.
