3 Web Interface Configuration
Trap Type AlarmEntryAdded: This setting simplifies configuration of the NMS,
since the NMS only needs to be configured for a couple Traps.
• An “AlarmEntryAdded” Trap will be sent anytime a new alarm is
added to the Alarm History log. The “AlarmEntryAdded” Trap
contains the Alarm Label. The NMS can receive this Trap and
extract and display the Alarm Label.
• An “AlarmEntryRemoved” Trap (also contains the Alarm Label)
will be sent anytime a Return to Normal Alarm is added to the
Alarm History log.
falconPortTraps: This option requires more configuration at the
NMS, but may make it easier to display, set severity, and parse the
data in the NMS. This option enables two Traps per FMS input:
• “FalconPortxxTrap” which is sent when an input goes into
alarm
• “FalconPortxxTrapClear” which is sent when the input returns
to normal.
Default: AlarmEntryAdded
Analog Trap
Varbinds
This feature is used for communication to an NMS via SNMP Traps.
The default adds the Value, UOM (Unit of Measure), and Label
fields to the message.
Label Only: Sends only the label on analog Traps. This makes
analog Traps the same format as digital Traps, which may make
parsing the Traps easier for the NMS.
Default: Value/UOM/Label
Trap Severity
Varbind
If the severity should be included in the trap, indicate that here.
Persistent Trap/
Inform Interval
This feature allows the FMS to issue continuous SNMP Traps until
an alarm acknowledgement is received by the FMS or until the
alarming point returns to normal. The SNMP Traps do not include
any delivery verification. Traps can be acknowledged from the
Alarm Management page.
A Persistent Trap setting of 5 or 10 minutes will trigger the FMS to
send the Trap on a regular interval in case the previous Trap did not
reach the Network Management System (NMS). Typically, the NMS
can be set to ignore duplicate Traps to prevent re-alarming at the
NMS.
This user-defined time interval is set in minutes. Enter 0 to send the
message just once.
