SNMP Configuring notifications
iMG/RG Software Reference Manual (System Configuration)

snmpTargetAddrTMask
is a bitfield mask for the snmpTargetAddrTAddress and appears in the snmpd.cnf file in the same for-
mat as the snmpTargetAddrTAddress For notifications, the value must be 255.255.255.255:0 to indicate
that the Trap or Inform message will be sent to a specific address.
Note: SNMP does not allow for the broadcasting of notifications. However, a notification may be sent to more
than one specific address by configuring more than one snmpTargetAddrEntry with the same tag(s)in
the
snmpTargetAddrTagListfield
snmpTargetAddrMMS
is an integer which is the maximum message size (in bytes)that can be transmitted between the local host and
the host with address snmpTargetAddrTAddress without risk of fragmentation. The default value is 2048.
1.6.3.3 Defining target parameters
To configure parameters to be used when sending notifications, add one or more snmpTargetParamsEn-
try definition in the snmpd.cnf file accordingly the following syntax:
snmpTargetParamsEntry <snmpTargetParamsName> <snmpTargetParamsMP-
Model> <snmpTargetParamsSecurityModel> <snmpTargetParamsSecuri-
tyName> <snmpTargetParamsSecurityLevel>
<snmpTargetParamsStorageType>
snmpTargetParamsName
is a human readable string representing the name of this parameter.
snmpTargetParamsMPModel
is 0 for SNMPv1, 1 for SNMPv2c, or 3 for SNMPv3.The value of this field together with the value of
snmpTargetParamsSecurityModel indicates which type of notification should be sent.
snmpTargetParamsSecurityModel
is snmpv1 for SNMPv1, snmpv2c for SNMPv2c, or usm for SNMPv3.The value of this field together with
the value of snmpTargetParamsMPModel indicates which type of notification should be sent.
snmpTargetParamsSecurityName
is a human readable string which is the principal (an SNMPv3 user, or an SNMPv2c or SNMPv1 community
string) to be used in the notification.
snmpTargetParamsSecurityLevel
identifies the security level of the notification to send. When an SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c notification is config-
ured, the only valid value is noAuthNoPriv. When an SNMPv3 notification is configured, the value of this
field is noAuthNoPriv for no authentication and no privacy, or authNoPriv for authentication without
privacy.
snmpTargetParamsStorageType
is nonVolatile, permanent or readOnly.
