Trap Flags
The pages in the Trap Manager folder allow you to view and configure information about SNMP
traps the system generates.
Use the Trap Flags page to enable or disable traps the switch can sent to an SNMP manager. When
the condition identified by an active trap is encountered by the switch, a trap message is sent to any
enabled SNMP Trap Receivers, and a message is written to the trap log.
To access the Trap Flags page:
1. Click System > SNMP > SNMP V1/V2 > Trap Flags.
