VMSC - VMD - Serviceability - SNMP Trap Destinations Tab

Use the Serviceability dialog box, SNMP Trap Destinations tab to configure alarm notification settings, when a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) tool is being used to collect and view alarms.

Notes: You should only configure the fields on this tab, if you are using SNMP to send traps to an SNMP Network Management Station (NMS). For more information on generic traps, see VMD - Generic Traps Supported on the MAS.

IP Address/Host Enter the IP address or host name for the trap destination. The default for a new trap destination reads Enter address.

Community Select a community name from the pick list. This name is used as security validation in communications between the SNMP client and the SNMP server.

This list is populated via the Communities tab. See VMSC - VMD - Serviceability - Communities Tab. The default for a new trap destination is the first item in the list.

Type Select the type of trap destination.

INADS Avaya Initialization and Administration System (INADS). This is used to send alarms back to Avaya through older Service Selection Gateway (SSG) devices.

Note: This setting is only valid, if the Alarm Origination field in the General tab is set to SNMP. See VMSC - VMD - Serviceability - General Tab.

OAM Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM). This is used for customer NMSs.

Port Enter the port number. The range is 1 through 65535, the default is 161.

Status Displays the status of the port, Active or Inactive.

Note: Trap destinations with the Type OAM are Active. The Type INADS will typically be Inactive, unless the Alarm Origination field in the General tab is set to SNMP.

Add Select to add a new trap destination.

A row appears in the grid with default settings. You can then configure the IP Address/Host, Community, Type and Port fields.

Remove Removes the selected trap destination from the list.
