Trap Severity Levels

Each trap has one of the following severity levels.

How To Define Trap Receivers

Each Management Card, PowerNet Agent, MasterSwitch unit, and Automatic Transfer Switch can

send traps to as many as four trap receivers. You define an NMS as a trap receiver using that NMS’s

IP address. You can also define other values for each trap receiver, such as the password (community

string) that traps must use when they are sent to a specific trap receiver.

To access the PowerNet MIB OIDs that you can use to define a trap receiver, perform these steps:

1. Select [apcmgmt] under [apc].

2. Select [mconfig].

Severe Warning Informational

event that requires immediate

corrective action.

can adversely affect a device’s

operation if the situation worsens.

Use this tabled set of OIDs to define parameters for each trap

receiver:

• Identify the trap receiver’s number (i.e. the read-only index to

the trap receiver entry).

• Define the NMS as a trap receiver by the NMS’s IP address. The

default value, 0.0.0.0, means that no NMS can receive traps.

• Define the password (community name) a trap must use.

• Identify the severity of traps to send to this NMS. Only traps of

a severity equal to or greater than this value are sent. See Trap

Severity Levels for definitions of the following severity levels:

-information (1)

-warning (2)

-severe (3)

• Enable or disable sending traps to this NMS.

-yes (1): Enable sending traps.

-no (2): Disable sending traps.

• Define the type of traps this NMS will receive. You must use

powernet (1) with a Management Card.
