there is no trap mapping or the element is not modeled in the
SPECTRUM object database, all varbind data will be captured and
presented to the user in a SPECTRUM event associated with the trap.
• Customers who add SNMP trap mappings through AlertMaps can use a
new global scope alert mapping by creating a new subdirectory in the
CsVendor area and placing an AlertMap file there. Previously, AlertMap
trap mapping entries were required for every model type that needed
to support the trap. Now only one “global scope” AlertMap entry is
required for a trap to be supported/mapped across all modeled devices.
These files will be preserved on upgrades.
• The trap mapping functionality is no longer available in the Event
Configuration Editor. However, it is still possible to map traps by
directly editing the appropriate AlertMap file. Instructions for doing this
can be found in the Event Configuration Files Guide (5070).
Web Operator Suite
• The amount of unused screen real estate and secondary graphics and
logos has been reduced to increase the amount of useful data that can
be presented on a screen. This reduces the amount of scrolling and the
need for the user to “hunt” for data.
• The Web Operator Suite home page has been removed and users will
now be initially presented with the Alarm Manager after logging into the
product.
• Alarm Manager no longer refreshes automatically by default. Users can
choose when to refresh or they can activate the automatic refresh.
• Alarm severity is now indicated in the alarm table by the background
color of the alarm’s table row. Critical alarms are red, major alarms are
orange, and minor alarms are yellow.
• When using the filter in Web Alarm Manager on a larger number of
alarms (>3000), filtered alarms will now be displayed at the top of the
list just as they are in Spectrum Alarm Manager.
• The Alarm Manager’s alarm table now includes a single details column
that presents the user with all of the needed “click areas”. From here
users can choose to click to the alarm details, model information, alarm
type information, as well as the secondary alarms.
