Configuring Trap Host

Trap host is the host to receive traps from an SNMP agent. Trap is message sent by an SNMP
agent to an NMS, a console, or a terminal to indicate the occurrence of a significant event, such
as a specifically defined condition or a threshold that was reached. By default, no trap host is
configured. To receive the trap generated on your managed device using NMS, you must add
the NMS as a trap host. You can specify up to twenty trap hosts on the Corecess R1-SW24L2B.

To add or modify trap hosts, use the following commands in Privileged mode:
