Trap Receivers - HP ProCurve Switch 212M Management And Configuration Manual

Configuring the Switch

Trap Receivers

Trap Receivers
From the switch console only you can configure up to ten IP management
stations (trap receivers) to receive SNMP trap packets sent from the switch.
Trap packets describe specific event types. (These events are the same as the
log messages displayed in the event log.) The Address and Community define
which management stations receive the traps.
If the Send Authentication Traps field is set to Yes, an authentication trap is sent
to the addresses on the screen if any management station attempts an unau-
thorized access of the switch. Check the event log to help determine why the
authentication trap was sent. (Refer to "Using the Event Log To Identify
Problem Sources" on page 8-6.)
To configuring Trap Receivers from the switch console, follow these steps:
