Enabling Back-end Server Traps 77
Enabling Back-end
Server Traps
Back-end server traps can be enabled and disabled at the 3COM SNMP
Agent level.
Alarm notification requires two components: a device (the 3Com VCX IP
Telephony Server) to send traps and a device (an alarm server) to receive
them and alert the network manager. Traps are sent over the Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which runs on the User
Datagram Protocol / Internet Protocol (UDP/IP).
First, use Enterprise Management Suite to tell the 3Com VCX IP
Telephony Server where to send traps. Then use Enterprise Management
Suite to enable the traps. Finally, start the trap generation.
