Display/Modify Trap Communities

View devices that are configured to receive notifications from the Web card, identified by IP address

or hostname, trap listen port and community string. Up to 20 devices may be configured to receive

traps.

Each device is identified by:

Entry Number - use the entry number (1-20) to edit or delete an entry
IP address or hostname - the address or name of the device to receive traps (MultiLink server,

Nform server, Network Management System)

Port - the Trap Listen Port where traps will be sent; use 162 if the host computer uses standard

ports (161/162)

Community string - the community string used by the IP host for this Entry Number

(case-sensitive, up to 32 characters)

• Enter e to edit an entry, then press Enter.
• Type the Entry Number, then press Enter.
• Enter the new IP address or hostname, then press Enter.
• Enter 1 for read or 2 for write access for this device, then press Enter.
