Processing SNMP Traps from Dell Devices
The Dell SPI uses the SNMP interceptor policies to process SNMP traps.
They have predefined rules to process all the Server Administrator/Storage
System SNMP traps sent by the Dell devices to the management server,
generate formatted messages, and send them to the HPOM console.
Dell SPI provides two SNMP policies:
• Dell_Process_SNMPTraps
• Dell_Process_SNMPTraps_AckManual
