SNMP trap configuration on an SLM
How do I configure SNMP Trap Event Triggers on an SLM? Do I need to specify the full OID for every trap I want to use as a trigger?
This answer applies to SLM firmware v2.0 and higher.
On the SLM Events page, when you setup a "Trap" as an Event Trigger, you don't have to explicitly describe the OID down to the last digit.
Example 1:
If you define a trap as shown below:
Trigger Type
[v] Trap IP Address: 172.19.237.10
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.244.1.1
It will match all SLC custom traps received from the specified IP address(172.19.237.10). These include:
1.3.6.1.4.1.244.1.1.0.1 (power supply)
1.3.6.1.4.1.244.1.1.0.2 (sysadmin password)
1.3.6.1.4.1.244.1.1.0.3 (shutdown)
1.3.6.1.4.1.244.1.1.0.4 (device port data)
Example 2:
If you define a trap as shown below:
Trigger Type
[v] Trap IP Address: 172.19.237.10
OID: 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5
It will match all generic SNMP traps received from the specified IP address(172.19.237.10). These include:
1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 (cold start)
1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.2 (warm start)
1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.3 (link down)
1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.4 (link up)
1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.5 (auth failure)
1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.6 (egpNeighborLoss)
Example 3:
If you define a trap as shown below:
Trigger Type
[v] Trap IP Address: 172.19.237.10
OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.244.1.1.0.1
This will only match SLC power supply trap received from the specified IP address(172.19.237.10).
