Set Up SNMP Alarming on the G700

Setting up SNMP alarm reporting involves two main tasks:

Configuring the primary server to report alarms to a services support agency

Configuring the G700 Media Gateway to send its traps to a network management system
(NMS)
Configuring the primary server to report alarms to a services
support agency
The primary server may be an S8300, S8500, or S8700/S8710 Media Server. The media server
supports two methods for reporting alarms. Either, both, or no alarm-reporting method may be
used at a given site.
OSS Method.
The server's software applications and hardware devices under its control can generate
Operations Support System (OSS) alarms. These alarms are recorded in the server logs,
and may be reported to Avaya's Initialization and Administration System (INADS), or
another services support agency over the server's modem interface.
To provide OSS alarm notification, the server requires a USB connection to a modem that is
connected to an analog line. The modem must be configured using the media server's Web
Interface, in the Set Modem Interface screen, and enabled to send and receive calls using
the Enable/Disable Modem screen.
Note:
Configuration of the OSS alarming method can only be done using Linux shell
Note:
commands.
SNMP Method
SNMP traps may be sent in User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to a corporate network
management system (NMS) using the Configure Trap Destinations screen on the media
server's Web Interface. The OSS and SNMP alarm-notification methods operate
independently of each other; either or both may be used. Currently, the following NMSs are
supported:
- Avaya Fault and Performance Manager, as a standalone application, or integrated within
Avaya MultiService™ Network Manager
- Avaya MultiService™ Network Manager
