SET ALERT

SET ALERT
Use the SET ALERT command to configure a DMM action when certain events
(see parameter descriptions below) occur. DMM actions include:
■
Sending alerts (traps) to a designated trap receiver (for example, a 3Com
CoreBuilder 5000 SwitchModule)
■
Displaying alert messages on the screen of a locally connected terminal
You must configure the trap receiver through the community table (SET
COMMUNITY command) so the DMM knows where to send traps.

authentication
Enables or disables authentication traps.
The DMM issues an authentication trap when an SNMP manager tries
to read from or write to the management hub and the user’s
community name is not valid for the attempted operation.
The factory setting is authentication traps enabled.
bridge_port
Enables or disables bridge port port up and down and STP state
aerts.
The DMM issues a port_up_down trap for a bridge port if the bridge
port starts or stops operating. This is independent of repeater
port_up_down alerts. The DMM also issues an stp_state alert when
the spanning tree instance for a bridge port has a topology change.
change
Enables or disables change traps.
The DMM issues a change trap when a change to the management
hub’s configuration occurs.
The factory setting is change traps enabled.
console_display
Enables or disables trap displays on the local terminal.
The factory setting is console_display enabled.
Hub up and hub down traps are displayed on the screen even if
console_display is disabled.
