3. Click the Apply button to save the trap settings.
4. It is necessary to tell the switch where to send the notifications. Make sure to set the trap configuration

7.11.7 Setting RF Traps
A screen is also available to specify traps caused when certain rates of activities either exceed or drop below
a specified threshold. To set rate traps, select System Configuration --> SNMP Access --> SNMP RF
Traps from the left menu.
1. Select the threshold type for which you want a rate trap, such as Pkts/sec.
2. Determine whether you want the rate to apply to Switch (the switch as a whole), Wlan (for each WLAN
enabled), Ap (each associated Access Port), or Mu (each mobile unit connected to the switch).
3. Type in the threshold rate into the field associated with the selected object.
4. Traps are only generated for those field where numbers exist. Explanation of the different threshold types
are listed below.
Pkts/s The maximum threshold for the number of packets per second before a trap is sent.
Throughput The maximum threshold for the total throughput in Mbps (Megabits per second) for each
of the devices before a trap is sent.
Average Bit
Speed
The minimum threshold for the average bit speed in Mbps (Megabits per second) for each
of the devices before a trap is sent.
% Non-Unicast The maximum threshold for the total percentage of packets that are non-unicast for each
of the devices before a trap is sent. Non-unicast packets include broadcast and multi-cast
traffic.
Average Signal The minimum threshold for the average signal strength in dBm for each of the devices
before a trap is sent.
