Configuring the RAC for SNMP
300861-C Rev. 00 2-5
Table 2-1 describes the standard SNMP traps supported by the RAC. The
proprietary traps and descriptions are provided in Chapter 5, “Error Handling.
Table 2-1. Supported Standard SNMP Traps
Defining the Contact String
The keyword contact defines the object that identifies the person responsible for
managing the RAC, as supported by MIB-II. The syntax is:
snmp contact string
The string can include information about how to contact the person, for example,
M. Law, x 370 (MIB-II object contact).
Defining the Location String
The keyword location defines the object that describes the RAC’s location, for
example, computer room. Specifying this string defines the value of the MIB-II
object sysLocation.
The syntax is:
snmp location string
Defining the disabled_modules Parameter
The parameter disabled_modules allows you to turn off certain features during
software initialization (for example, enter lat, ppp, slip to turn these features off).
If you disable SNMP, the RAC discards all SNMP messages it receives. By
default, the SNMP agent on the RAC is enabled (for more details, see
disabled_modules in the Nortel Networks 5399 and 8000 Access Software
Reference).
Trap Description
coldstart Upon initialization of the SNMP agent at boot time
linkUp Upon initialization of each network interface
linkDown Upon deconfiguration of any network interface
