SNMP Trap Host identifies the IP-address of the SNMP manager. SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol, SNMP Ver 1) is used for monitoring and configuring of different entities in
a network. The system's SNMP Agent responds to requests from SNMP Managers (a PC
program etc.). SNMP traps are generated by the agent to inform the manager about important
events.
Traps can be sent to multiple SNMP Trap Hosts. Enter the IP address of up to three SNMP
managers. All traps will then be sent to the hosts listed.
SNMP Community names are used to authenticate SNMP requests. SNMP requests must have a
‘password’ in order to receive a response from the SNMP agent in the codec. Note that the
SNMP Community name is case sensitive. The default password is "public".
