You can perform these tasks independently from each other.
4.4.1 Define IP Address of the Protection Partner Module
The PMC-CGM modules usually work in a master/slave configuration. The protection partner
is the other PMC-CGM module, regardless of the master/slave role. The default partner
address is configured according to the IP address configuration described in Table "MIB
Browser Settings" on page 37.
Defining the IP address of the protection partner module
To define the IP address via the MIB, process as follows:
1. Start SNMP manager or MIB browser.
2. Connect to the PMC-CGM using one of its IP addresses.
3. In object cgmProtectionPartnerAddress OID: .1.3.6.1.4.1.3656.8152.1.1.22.0 set
the IP address of the partner PMC-CGM module.
4.4.2 Define SNMP Trap Destinations
The PMC-CGM firmware keeps an event log which captures errors, warnings and informative
messages in a RAM buffer. The event log can always be accessed via SNMP. Additionally, it
is possible to configure the firmware so that each entry up to a certain severity level is posted
as an SNMP trap to a specified destination.
Defining SNMP Trap Destinations
To define SNMP trap destinations, proceed as follows:
1. Start SNMP manager or MIB browser.
2. Connect to the PMC-CGM using one of its IP addresses.
3. Go to object cgmBootString OID:.1.3.6.1.4.1.3656.8152.1.3.33.
4. Enter IP address to which the SNMP traps have to be sent in the h|host|trapDest
parameter.
This setting is stored persitently in the NVRAM of the module and is applied after
the next reboot.
5. Go to object cgmTrapDestination OID: .1.3.6.1.4.1.3656.8152.1.3.32.0.
6. Enter IP address to which the SNMP traps have to be sent.
This setting is only valid until the next reboot. After the reboot, the default IP address
defined via the cgmBootString object is applied.
