Setting SNMP Traps

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) uses traps to transmit information to SNMP-based
network administration programs. The Switch SNMP Trap Configuration page displays information on
the switch’s current SNMP trap configuration.

To view the SNMP trap configuration page, click Switch > SNMP Traps.

To configure an SNMP trap:

1.

Enter the Trap IP address for the device to which the trap information will be sent.

2.

Enter the Trap Port number.

This value is usually set to "162" for Windows and Apple-based networks.

3.

Select the State.

4.

Click Submit.

When editing a registered IP address, delete the current IP address and create a new entry for the
revised IP address.
