Appendix E SNMP Traps
This section provides information on proprietary SNMP traps currently supported by the gateway.
There is a separation between traps that are alarms and traps that are not (logs). Currently all
have the same structure made up of the same 11 varbinds (Variable Binding)
(1.3.6.1.4.1.5003.9.10.1.21.1).
The source varbind is composed of a string that details the component from which the trap is
being sent (forwarded by the hierarchy in which it resides). For example, an alarm from an SS7
link has the following string in its source varbind:
acBoard#1/SS7#0/SS7Link#6
In this example, the SS7 link number is specified as 6 and is part of the only SS7 module in the
device that is placed in slot number 1 (in a chassis) and is the module to which this trap relates.
For devices where there are no chassis options the slot number of the gateway is always 1.
E.1 Alarm Traps
The following tables provide information on alarms that are raised as a result of a generated
SNMP trap. The component name (described in each of the following headings) refers to the
string that is provided in the ‘acBoardTrapGlobalsSource’ trap varbind. To clear a generated
alarm the same notification type is sent but with the severity set to ‘cleared’.
E.1.1 Component: Board#<n>
<n> is the slot number when the gateway resides in a chassis and is 1 when it is a stand alone
device.
Table E-1: acBoardFatalError Alarm Trap
Alarm:
acBoardFatalError
OID:
1.3.6.1.4.1.5003.9.10.1.21.2.0.1

device and perform a reset.
