Paradyne COMSPHERE 6800 Series Installation And Enabling/Disabling Instructions page 4

Installation and User Commands
This section provides installation instructions and descriptions of the commands for enabling and disabling the
trap forwarding feature. The installation procedure must be used by both new users and users upgrading their
system with the trap forwarding feature. New users must install the 6800 Series NMS before installing this
feature. The required base version of the 6800 Series NMS must be Release 4.1 or greater installed with
PTF 4.1.1 or greater.
The enable and disable commands can be run from the system command line. You must restart the 6800 Series
NMS each time this feature is either enabled or disabled.
Installing Trap Forwarding
To install the trap forwarding feature, use the following steps:
1. Login as root.
2. Insert the install diskette into the floppy diskette drive on the host.
3. At the UNIX prompt:
4. (OPTIONAL STEP). Enable the SNMP Trap Export feature to initiate trap forwarding during feature
installation. Refer to Enabling Trap Forwarding later in this document. To defer enabling this feature to
a later time, ignore this step.
5. (OPTIONAL STEP). Restart the 6800 Series NMS. You must restart the NMS for the trap forwarding
feature to be in effect to send the traps to the node whose internet address was specified during the
feature enable step. The procedure for observing traps on the SNMP Manager is documented in your
SNMP Manager documentation.
It is recommended that you shut down the 6800 Series NMS before
starting this installation process. Refer to the COMSPHERE
