Generates an SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c trap and sends
it to a specified IP address or host name.
Fields
- Destination IP address or host name
- Specifies the IP address in dotted decimal format or host name of the
system to which you want to send an SNMP trap when an associated event occurs.
To enter multiple locations (IP addresses or host names), use a comma or a
space to separate the destinations.
Note: IPv4 addresses are accepted.
- Community name
- Specifies the community name used by the destination host. The default
value is public, indicating that the target host is using a public
community name. If the target host requires a community name other than public,
type the community name in this field.
If you are specifying multiple destinations,
type the community names in the same order as the IP addresses or host names
to which they apply. If all your destinations use the same community name,
you only need to enter the one community name. If you give more IP addresses
than community names, the last community name is applied to the rest of the
IP addresses. If you give more community names than IP addresses, the remaining
community names are ignored.
- SNMP trap version
- Specifies the version, either SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c, of the trap being sent
to the IP address or host name.
