3. Click the Settings tab.
4. Click the SNMP Configuration link.
5. In the SNMP Configuration File add a trapsink command that includes the CMS IP address, for
example trapsink 1.2.3.4 public, and click Change.
The trapsink command is required for events to be sent to Insight Remote Support Advanced for
analysis. If the trapsink command is not configured, Insight Remote Support Advanced will not
receive traps.
A rocommunity directive allows SNMP GET and GETNEXT access. It is required for discovery and
by the analysis rules. The format is: rocommunity <community_string>, for example
rocommunity public. The community string used must be the same read community string
configured in the HP SIM and WEBES SNMP protocol assigned to the ProLiant ESX server. The
rocommunity is used during analysis rules trap processing to retrieve additional information not
supplied with traps.
The rwcommunity directive allows SNMP GET, GETNEXT, and SET access. It is not required for use
by Insight Remote Support Advanced, but may be needed by other applications.
