SAGE

Systems that support SNMP often need a mechanism for recording

Notification information as a hedge against lost notifications, whether

those are Traps or Informs that exceed retransmission limits. The

Notification Log MIB (NLM, RFC 3014) provides an infrastructure in

which information from other MIBs may be logged.

Given the service provided by the NLM, individual MIBs can now bear

less responsibility to record transient information associated with an

event against the possibility that the Notification message is lost, and

applications can poll the log to verify that they have not missed any

important Notifications.

If notification logging is not configured and enabled, when the switch

reboots, some SNMP traps (such as warm start) cannot be logged.
