Ethernet switch to report alarms to the media server when problems occur.
For the SNMP module to properly report alarms, you must configure a unique IP address for the
UPS on both the SNMP module and the media server. This IP address can be a
customer-provided address or the Avaya-provided default address. At a minimum, you must
configure the following items:
The IP address
●
The subnetwork mask
●
The gateway IP address
●
The trap receiver IP address
●
The community string (get, set, trap)
●
The brand, the model, or the firmware load of the Ethernet switch that Avaya supplies can
change without notice. For this reason, this document does not provide specific instructions on
how to connect to and configure the SNMP subagent. For more information, see the
documentation that comes with the Ethernet switch. Also see the Basic Configuration section of
the Quick Start Guide and the documentation CD-ROM that comes with the Ethernet switch for
