About this task
Configure an interface to send SNMP traps. If the Avaya Virtual Services Platform 4000 Series has
multiple interfaces, configure the IP interface from which the SNMP traps originate.
Procedure
1. Configure the destination and source IP addresses for SNMP traps:
snmp-server sender-ip {A.B.C.D} {A.B.C.D}
2. If required, send the source address (sender IP) as the sender network in the notification
message:
snmp-server force-trap-sender enable
3. If required, force the SNMP and IP sender flag to use the same value:
snmp-server force-iphdr-sender enable
Example
VSP-4850GTSPWR+:1> enable
VSP-4850GTSPWR+:1# configure terminal
VSP-4850GTSPWR+:1(config)# snmp-server sender-ip 44.16.13.12 42.13.15.10
VSP-4850GTSPWR+:1config)# snmp-server force-trap-sender enable
VSP-4850GTSPWR+:1(config)# snmp-server force-iphdr-sender enable
Enable the generation of authentication traps:
VSP-4850GTSPWR+:1(config)# snmp-server authentication-trap enable
