5 In the SNMP Community String box, you can type an optional string for the
community field in the
Header section of the SNMP trap sent for an alert.
The string must be from 5 to 16 characters. The default string is public.
6 In the IP Setup box, click either:
■ DHCP—The IP address for the server is automatically assigned by the
DHCP (dynamic host control protocol) server on the network. The
Host, Gateway, and Subnet Mask boxes in the dialog box are ignored.
■ Static—Assign the IP address for the server using the Host, Gateway,
and Subnet Mask boxes in the dialog box.
7 If you chose Static IP Setup in the previous step, complete the IP addressing
boxes:
■ Host IP Address—The IP address of this server.
■ Gateway IP Address—The IP address of the router for this server.
■ Subnet Mask—The IP address for the server’s subnet. The server uses
this to decide if the alert destination is on the same subnet.
8 In the Alert IP Address box, complete the IP address of the system you want
to receive alerts from this server. If you want the alert to be broadcast to
an entire subnet, enter the IP address for the subnet.
