agent on the host. If SNMP manager requests to query the SNMP

information from RAID storage, please refer the Appendix C "SNMP

Operation & Installation". The “SNMP traps Configuration” menu will

show as following:

When you open the SNMP traps configuration page, you will see the

following settings:

1. SNMP Trap Configurations

Enter the SNMP trap IP address.

2. SNMP System Configurations

Community name acts as a password to screen accesses to the

SNMP agent of a particular network device. Type the community

names of the SNMP agent in this field. Before access is granted

to a request station, this station must incorporate a valid

community name into its request; otherwise, the SNMP agent will

deny access to the system. Most network devices use “public” as

default of their community names. This value is case-sensitive.

3. SNMP Trap Notification Configurations

Before the client side SNMP manager application accepts the

RAID storage traps, it is necessary to integrate the MIB into the

management application’s database of events and status indicator

codes. This process is known as compiling the MIB into the

application. This process is highly vendor-specific and should be

well-covered in the User’s Guide of your SNMP application. Ensure

the compilation process successfully integrates the contents of

the areca_sas.mib file into the traps database.

The MIBs file resides

at: <CD-ROM>\packages\SNMP_MIBs on the software CD.
