These are received by the Event Manager. The Event Manager can be
viewed using Avaya Network Management Console. The Event Log
Browser window of the Event Manager provides a list of traps in a table.
Each row contains information about a single trap.
* Note: To receive device traps in Event Manager, include
Avaya Network Management Server on the list of each
device's trap managers. For information on configuring
Avaya Network Management Server as a trap manager, refer

of network events. It can also open a pop-up message, play of a sound

In addition, you can configure a network event to trigger a pre-defined
script. The Event Configuration window of the Event Manager provides
