7.5.2 Adding SNMP Trap Receivers
The SNMP Add screen is designed to create a new SNMP trap receiver. Use the Add screen to create a new
trap receiver IP Address, Port Number and v2c or v3 designation. Add new destination trap receivers as
required to suit the various traps enabled and their function in supporting the switch managed network.
To add a new SNMP trap receiver:
1. Select Management Access > SNMP Trap Receivers from the main menu tree.
2. Click the Add button at the bottom of the screen.
3. Create a new (non DNS name) destination IP address for the new trap receiver to be used for receiving
the traps sent by the SNMP agent.
4. Define a Port Number for the trap receiver.
5. Use the Protocol Options drop-down menu to specify the trap receiver as either a SNMP v2c or v3
receiver.
6. Click OK to save and add the changes to the running configuration and close the dialog.
7. Refer to the Status field for the current state of the requests made from applet. This field displays
error messages if something goes wrong in the transaction between the applet and the switch.
8. Click Cancel to close the dialog without committing updates to the running configuration.
