Configure SNMP Trap Message Recipients

Perform this procedure to configure community names, write authorizations, and

a management workstation that receives notification (through SNMP) if a switch
event occurs.
To configure SNMP trap recipients:

SNMP Agent. The Configure SNMP Agent dialog box displays
a. For each trap recipient to be configured, type a community name of 64
alphanumeric characters or less in the associated Community Name
field. The community name is incorporated in SNMP trap messages to
ensure against unauthorized viewing or use.
b. Click the check box in the Write Authorization column to enable or
disable write authorization for the trap recipient (default is disabled). A
check mark in the box indicates write authorization is enabled. When the
feature is enabled, a management workstation user can change the HAFM
server's sysContact, sysName, and sysLocation SNMP
variables.
