Trap Enabled
Trap Version
Trap Address
(see note below)
Trap Community
Trap Severity
Trap Port
(see note below)
NOTE: The Trap Address (other than 0.0.0.0) and Trap Port combination must be unique. For
example, if Trap 1 and Trap 2 have the same address, they must have different port values.
Similarly, if Trap 1 and Trap 2 have the same port value, they must have different addresses.
However, you can have multiple trap destinations with the same address, if you ensure that the port
values are different. You can accomplish this via clish (command line interface shell) using a
two-step process. First, set the address to something unique, modify the port, and save/activate.
Second, go back in and set the address to one that is already set as a different trap destination.
4. To set additional traps, click the Trap 2 through Trap 5 tabs to bring each of those tabbed pages to the
