Snmp Trap Manager Configuration - D-Link DES-5600 User Manual

Fast Ethernet Switching System User's Guide
Traps are messages the DES-5600 sends out to inform trap managers of events on
the network. The DES-5600 generates traps and sends them to the network
manager. Trap managers are special network users who are given certain rights
and access to oversee and maintain the network. This feature is available only in
D-View or by using other SNMP management software.
You can specify which network managers may receive traps from the DES-5600
by creating a list of IP Addresses of the authorized network managers.
Trap managers can receive the following trap types:
Cold Start
Signifies that the DES-5600 has been powered up. Software settings are
reconfigured and hardware systems are rebooted. A cold start is different from a
factory reset.
Authentication Failure
Signifies that an addressee (or manager/ user) on the DES-5600 is not a valid user
of the DES-5600 and may have entered an incorrect community name.
Link Change Event
Signifies that the link of a port has changed from link up to link down or vice
versa.
Status
Can be Delete or Enable. Only community strings whose status is Enabled can
receive Traps.
