• Collector Frequency allows administrators to specify the maximum time
between collection attempts, ranging from 30 minutes to daily. Every 15
minutes, STM checks every device and if the time since the last
successful data collection is greater than the time specified in this field,
the server adds the device to the collection list and attempts to collect
data from the agent on that device.
• SNMP Frequency sets the interval (30 min. to daily) the server uses for
SNMP-standard GET commands to collect MIB II data from SNMP-
enabled monitored devices.
Note on SNMP traps: The STM Event Receiver continues to receive SNMP
traps as they arrive regardless of the setting in this field.
Trap Forwarding Settings
The STM server and its agents can generate traps that are sent to the STM Trap
Receiver. To forward these STM traps to a network operations center, configure
the trap forwarding features of STM
STM only forwards STM traps currently.
• Forward $ STM Traps enables the forwarding of traps when set to true.
• Destination IP sets the IP address of the server to which you want to
forward traps.
• Destination Port sets the port of the server to which you want to forward
traps.
• Community String sets the community string of the server to which you
want to forward traps.
• Disk Usage Warning Limit sets the threshold for a file system, volume
or drive that you want to forward as a Warning trap.
• Disk Usage Critical Limit sets the threshold for a file system, volume or
drive that you want to forward as a Critical trap.
• Disk Usage Error Limit sets the threshold for a file system, volume or
drive that you want to forward as an Error trap.
• In general, you want the Warning Limit to be less than the Critical Limit,
which will be less than the Error Limit (ex., 70 < 80 < 90).
• Persist Trap determines if trap is persisted in database.
User Authentication Settings (LDAP Settings )
• Enable LDAP Authentication Enables LDAP Authentication when set to
True
