Configuring SNMP Traps
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol governing
network management and the monitoring of network devices and their
functions.
SNMP traps are sent out over a network to gather information.
The traps are configured on the Event Management - Settings page. See
List of KX II-101-V2 SNMP Traps for a list of KX II-101-V2 SNMP traps.
SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data about themselves in
Management Information Bases (MIBs) and respond to the SNMP trap.
SNMP agents are configured on the Device Services page. See
