Working with SNMP Traps

Fault management systems and network operations centers (NOCs) typically receive SNMP traps. You can send alerts to such systems as SNMP v2 traps or SNMP v3 traps, depending on the destination product.

The only required tasks for working with SNMP traps follow:

• Create a custom MIB for each action alert destined for CA NSM.
• Prepare the destination products to receive SNMP traps from CA Enterprise Log Manager.
• Schedule alerts with one or more SNMP trap destinations.

Configuring a default SNMP trap destination is optional.
