Configuring the G250/G350 to send SNMPv3 alarms
The Avaya G250/G350 Media Gateway uses SNMPv3 for traps and alarms. In order to
configure the Avaya G250/G350 Media Gateway to send SNMP traps to the primary server you
must enable the SNMP agent, specify the SNMP host, and setup SNMP authentication. You
perform these tasks using the following CLI commands:
To enable the SNMP agent: ip snmp-server
●
To specify the SNMP host: snmp-server host
●
To create an SNMPv3 view: snmp-server view viewname subtree
●
To create an SNMPv3 group and specify its views: snmp-server group groupname
●
read readviewname write writeviewname notify notifyviewname
To create a user and add the user to a group: snmp-server user username
●
groupname
Configure the host for G250/G350 SNMP traps
Events occurring on the G250/G350 cause SNMP traps to be generated. The Avaya G250/
G350 Media Gateway can be configured to send SNMP traps to any network management
system (NMS) in the network, including the primary server (S8300/S8500/S8700/S8710). You
specify the destination host using the G250/G350 CLI snmp-server host command. The
traps are sent in User Datagram Protocol (UDP) on the customer's IP network.
The command syntax is:
snmp-server host {<hostaddress>|<hostname>} {traps|informs}
{{{v1|v2c} <community> | {v3 [auth|noauth|priv] <user>}} [udp-port
<port>] [<notification-type-list>]
This command is used both to specify the destination host for SNMP messages, and to define
which SNMP messages are to be sent.
For example, to enable the SNMPv3 manager at IP address 192.16.55.126 to receive
inform-type messages, to use SNMPv3 authentication, and to receive Ethernet port fault
notifications only, enter:
G350-001(super)# snmp-server host 192.16.55.126 informs v3 auth localuser
eth-port-faults
Note:
You must log in to the CLI as admin to administer SNMP settings.
