2. From the Device Configuration page, click on the Setup SNMP Traps for this variable hyperlink

for the device variable of interest. This will take you to the Trap Setup page of the variable for which

to setup SNMP Trap alerts.

3. If the selected device variable is a scalar variable (e.g. temperature or humidity), you will see the

following table on the Pager Setup page:

Figure 16: Configuring Trap Alerts for a Scalar Variable

Notice that for a scalar variable, you can configure trap alerts to be sent in the following alert states:

 Trap on Scalar Critical – The trap that will be sent when the variable reading breaches the scalar

critical low limit or the scalar critical high limit.

 Trap on Scalar Warning – The trap that will be sent when the variable reading breaches the scalar

warning low limit or the scalar warning high limit.

 Trap on Return to Normal. – The trap that will be sent when the variable reading returns to normal

after exceeding breach limits.

For a Boolean variable, you can configure trap alerts to be sent in the following alert states:

 Trap on Boolean Critical – The trap that will be sent when the variable reading is in the Boolean

critical state.

 Trap on Return to Normal. – The trap that will be sent when the variable reading returns from

Boolean critical state to normal state.

4. For each trap alert that you would like to enable, check the corresponding Enable checkbox.

5. In each Interval field, specify the trap interval for the corresponding breach condition. As long as the

variable is in a particular breach condition, pager alerts will be repeatedly sent at the interval

corresponding to the breach condition.

6. When you are finished, click the Save Changes button.

7. It is highly recommended that you test all of your trap alerts to ensure that they are properly setup.

You can test each trap alert by clicking on its Send Test Trap button.
