Configuring SNMP events

The Nortel SNAS supports three kinds of SNMP monitors, as defined in
the DISMAN-EVENT-MIB:

boolean —checks the value of a monitored object identifier (OID)
against a specific value, and triggers an event if the result matches a
specified operation.

threshold —compares a monitored OID against a range of values, and
triggers events if the comparison determines that the OID value is
rising too quickly, falling too quickly, or falls outside certain boundaries

existence —checks the condition of a monitored OID to determine if
it is present, absent, or changed, and triggers an event if the result
matches the specified condition

To configure monitors and events defined in the DISMAN-EVENT-MIB,
use the following command:

/cfg/sys/adm/snmp/event

The event menu appears.
