Local SMT events are automatically reported by the SNMP agent in a
LANplex system.
If you have a single LANplex on your network and you have no other way to
access FDDI information, then you should enable proxying of SMT events.
This configuration provides access to the events occurring locally on the
LANplex and those reported by other stations on the FDDI ring.
If you have multiple LANplex systems on your FDDI network all reporting to
the same SNMP management station, then you can do one of the following:
On only one LANplex system, 1) enable local SNMP traps as described in
the earlier section "Configuring Trap Reporting" and 2) enable proxying
of remote SMT events. On all other LANplex systems in your network,
1) disable proxying of remote SMT events and 2) enable only SNMP traps
that are not SMT-related. SMT-related traps include all of those in the
LANplex Optional FDDI MIB. This configuration provides access to the events
occurring locally on the one LANplex and those reported by other stations
on the FDDI ring (including other LANplex systems).
Enable local SNMP traps and disable the proxying of remote SMT events on
every LANplex system in your network. Local traps will be reported to the
management station (which will cover all your LANplex systems), but SMT
events from other non-LANplex systems in your network will not be
reported.
To enable or disable the proxying of remote SMT events:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
snmp trap smtProxyTraps
If the system is in single agent SNMP mode, proceed to step 3. If the system
is in multiple agent SNMP mode, you are prompted for agents.
2 Enter the agent(s) for which you want to enable or disable proxying of
remote SMT events.
3 Enter or
enable disable
The proxying of remote SMT traps is enabled or disabled for the system.
