INSTALLING THE SIMPLE NETWORK MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL
The SNMP Agent allows the SFVRA Connection Manager system to be monitored from a local
and/or remote Network Management Station (NMS). The SNMP Agent will only generate traps
from the SFVRA-CONN. Traps are protocol data units that transmit problem information. These
problems are similar to those listed in the problem log with some exceptions. For example, if a call
were rejected based on an authentication failure, a trap would be immediately sent to the NMS.
Traps are also sent if any of the Remote Access Switches go down. However, traps are not sent
when a User is disconnected based on a time restriction. SNMP is in compliance with IP, however
since the SFVRA-CONN determines the traps that are sent, the NMS also receives information for
non-IP servers. If you choose to set up a Network Management Station, follow the instructions
below on installing and configuring the SNMP Service.
