Configuring SNMP Traps
A trap is an unsolicited message that is sent from the
DSU/CSU to an SNMP manager when the DSU/CSU
detects certain pre-specified conditions. These traps
enable the SNMP manager to monitor the state of the
network.
The SNMP Trap configuration option must be enabled
for trap messages to be sent over the communications
link. You must specify the number of SNMP managers
that are to receive traps from this DSU/CSU, an IP
address for each SNMP manager specified, and the type
of traps to be sent from this DSU/CSU. For more
information, refer to Appendix C, Configuration Options,
and the SNMP Traps section in Chapter 4, Maintenance.
