Trap Managers Configuration
This chapter provides information and instructions for configuring
managers for the Avaya P460 Device. It includes the following topics:
• Trap Manager Overview - An overview on Traps and
Managers.
• Viewing the Trap Managers Table - Instructions on accessing
the Trap Managers Table, and a description of the Trap Managers
Table.
• Editing the Trap Managers Table - Instructions on how to edit
the Trap Managers Table.
In the event of a fault or an unusual occurrence, the Avaya P460 can
send traps to one or more Network Management Stations (NMS). To
enable this feature, you must configure the Avaya P460 with a list of the
managers' workstations. Traps are then sent to the stations listed in the
Managers Table.
* Note: Up to five managers can be assigned per device. However, it
is recommended to keep the list limited to actual and
relevant managers so as not to place undue stress on the
network.
Using the Trap Managers table, you can also configure which traps are
sent to specific managers. The columns to the right of the managers' IP
addresses represent specific traps. Checking the checkbox in a trap
column enables the manager to receive the checked trap. Managers only
receive the traps which are checked.
