Configure Trap Receivers

  1. Access the trap-receiver configuration element.
    ORACLE# configure terminal
    ORACLE(configure)# system
    ORACLE(system)# trap-receiver
    ORACLE(trap-receiver)# 
  2. Select the trap-receiver object to specify a trap receiver.
    ORACLE(trap-receiver)# select
    <ip-address>:
    
    ORACLE(trap-receiver)#
  3. ip-address — Set the IPv4 or IPv6 address of an authorized network management system (NMS) where traps are sent. If you do not specify a port number, the default SNMP trap port of 162 is be used.
  4. filter-level — Set the filter level threshold that indicates the severity level at which a trap is to be sent to this particular trap receiver. The default for this parameter is critical.

    Example: When a trap with a severity level of critical is generated, the SNMP agent sends this trap only to NMSs that are configured in a trap-receiver element and have a filter-level value of critical.

    The following table maps Syslog and SNMP alarms to trap receiver filter levels.

    When configuring the trap-receiver element for use with Oracle Communications Session Element Manager systems, Oracle recommends that the value of filter-level be set to All for that configuration element that includes those servers.

  5. community-name — Set the community name to which this trap receiver belongs. This community must be defined in the SNMP community element.
