Configuring Your Managed Systems to Send Traps to IT Assistant
Managed system agents such as Server Administrator generate SNMP traps in
response to changes in the status of sensors and other monitored parameters
on a managed system. For IT Assistant to receive these traps, one or more
trap destinations must be configured on the managed system.
To configure your system running Server Administrator to send traps to a
Services system, edit the SNMP agent configuration file,
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf (/etc/snmpd.conf in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server),
by performing the following steps:
1
Add the following line to the file:
trapsink IP_address community_name
where IP_address is the IP address of the services system and
community_name is the SNMP community name.
2 Save the snmpd.conf file and restart the snmpd service.
Setting Up SNMP on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
Retain the trapsink and smuxpeer lines in the existing snmpd.conf file.
Delete all other content from the file.
Add the following in the snmpd.conf:
com2sec mynetwork <subnet>/24 public
NOTE: Substitute <subnet> with the subnet address of your management station.
However, retain the /24.
group MyRWGroup v1 mynetwork
view all included .1 80
access MyRWGroup "" any noauth exact all all none
Restart /etc/init.d/snmpd.
