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.
