SNMP Trap Manager Setting
Enables you to enter the IP addresses of Trap Managers. Traps are messages the DES-3224
sends out to inform trap managers of events on the network. The DES-3224 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-3224 by creating
a list of IP Addresses of the authorized network managers.
Trap managers can receive the following trap types:
Cold Start
Authentication Failure
Link Change Event
Cold Start
Signifies that the DES-3224 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-3224 is not a valid user of the
DES-3224 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.
