19.2.6 About SNMP settings

Network management systems use SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) to monitor
network-attached devices for conditions that require administrative attention. By configuring settings
on the Logical Interconnect Groups and Logical Interconnects screens, you can enable third-party
SNMP managers to monitor (read-only) network status information of the interconnects.

The SNMP manager typically manages a large number of devices, and each device can have a
large number of objects. It is impractical for the manager to poll information from every object on
every device. Instead, each agent on the managed device notifies the manager without solicitation
by sending a message known as an event trap.

The appliance enables you to control the ability of SNMP managers to read values from an
interconnect when they query for SNMP information. You can filter the type of SNMP trap to
capture, and then designate the SNMP manager to which traps will be forwarded. By default,
SNMP is enabled with no trap destinations set.

When you create a logical interconnect, it inherits the SNMP settings from its logical interconnect
group. To customize the SNMP settings at the logical interconnect level, use the Logical Interconnects
screen or REST APIs.

19.2.7 Update the logical interconnect configuration from the logical interconnect
group

Compliance checking is the validation of a logical interconnect to ensure that it matches the
configuration of its parent logical interconnect group. The appliance monitors both the logical
