Enterprise Specific Traps

The following Enterprise Specific Traps are supported:

•

swFault — Indicates the diagnostics detect a fault with the switch.

•

swSensorScn — Indicates an environment sensor changes its operational state.

For example; a fan stops working. The VarBind in the Trap Data Unit contains the

corresponding instance of the sensor status.

•

swFCPortScn — A notification that a Fibre Channel Port changes its operational

state. For instance, the Fibre Channel Port goes from online to off-line. The

VarBind in the Trap Data Unit contains the corresponding instance of the port's

operational status.

•

swEventTrap — A notification that an event has occurred and its event severity

level is at or below the value set in the variable swEventTrapLevel. The VarBind in

the Trap Data Unit contains the corresponding instance of the event index, time

information, event severity level, the repeat count, and description.

The parameters can be configured via the

SNMPv1 SET

command with an appropri-

ate community. These parameters can also be configured via a Telnet connection,

using the command

agtcfgSet

NOTE: SNMP swFCPortScn traps are generated on gigabit interface converter (GBIC)

insertion and removal even though the state remains offline.

Manage Node Configuration

Changes to SNMP from either Telnet or SNMP are not displayed in SNMP until the

switch is rebooted running. This is due to SNMP running from cache while the active

settings are running from the flash PROM.

The configurable parameters include the following:

•

SNMPv1 communities (up to 6)

•

Trap recipients (1 per community)

•

sysName

•

sysContact

•

sysLocation

•

authenticationFailure — Indicates the manage node has received a protocol mes-

sage that is not properly authenticated. This trap, by default, is disabled but can

be enabled via the command

agtcfgSet

•

swEventTrapLevel — Indicates the swEventTrap severity level in conjunction with

an event's severity level. When an event occurs and if its severity level is at or

below the set value, the SNMP trap, swEventTrap, is sent to configured recipi-

ents. By default, this value is set at

, implying that no swEventTrap is sent.

Possible values are as follows:

— None

— Critical
