7 - 8 Aironet Wireless Client

The following trap messages will be sent as they occur:

n A cold start trap will be sent when the unit ﬁrst powers up.

n A link up trap is sent when the conﬁguration is changed or restored

for a severe error condition.

n A link down trap is sent when the conﬁguration is changed or

encounters a severe error condition.

n A link up trap is sent for an Aironet Wireless Client as soon as the

radio is conﬁgured.

n An authentication failure trap will be sent if an SNMP request is

received with an unknown community name. This trap may be dis-

abled by setting the “authtrap” parameter to “Off”. See “Enabling

Authentication Failure Trap (Authtrap)”.

n Any normal alarms and logs you have conﬁgured to be sent by set-

ting the “loglevel” parameter.

NOTE: Since the path to the trap destination may be through a failed or

not yet established radio link, it is possible that cold start and link down

traps could be lost.

Specifying Community Names for Trap Messages (Trapcomm)

Use the trapcomm option to specify the community name that will be

used in the trap message.
