If you enable the option Send information about system events (traps) to the target addresses specified in the following table, the recipients configured under Target addresses and Target parameters will receive the corresponding information.
Target addresses
The list of target addresses is used to configure the addresses of the recipients to whom the SNMP agent sends the SNMP traps.
- Entry active
- Activates or deactivates this entry.
- Name
- Give the entry a descriptive name here.
- Transport address
- Configure the address of the recipient here. This address describes the IP address and port number of a recipient of an SNMP trap and is specified in the syntax "<IP address> : <Port>" (e.g. 128.1.2.3:162). UDP port 162 is used for SNMP traps.
- Target parameter name
- Here you select the desired entry from the list of recipient parameters.
Target parameter name
In this table you configure how the SNMP agent handles the SNMP traps that it sends to the recipient.
- Entry active
- Activates or deactivates this entry.
- Name
- Give the entry a descriptive name here.
- Message processing model
- Here you specify the protocol for which the SNMP agent structures the message.
- Security model
- SNMPv3 introduced the principle of the "Security Model", so that the SNMP configuration in LCOS LX primarily uses the security model "SNMPv3". However, for compatibility reasons it may be necessary to allow for the versions SNMPv2c or even SNMPv1, and to select these accordingly. Select one of the following entries accordingly:
- Any
- Any model is accepted.
- SNMPv1
- Data is transmitted by SNMPv1. Users are authenticated by the community string in the SNMP message only. Communication is not encrypted. This corresponds to the security level "NoAuthNoPriv".
- SNMPv2_C
- Data is transmitted by SNMPv2c. Users are authenticated by the community string in the SNMP message only. Communication is not encrypted. This corresponds to the security level "NoAuthNoPriv".
- SNMPv3_USM
- Data is transmitted by SNMPv3. This can only be selected together with SNMP users. The effective possible security level depends on the user's chosen authentication and encryption methods.
- Security-Name
- Here you select a security name you assigned to an SNMP community.
- Security level
- Set the security level that applies for the recipient to receive the SNMP trap.
- NoAuthNoPriv (No authentication/No privacy)
- The authentication is performed by the specification and evaluation of the user name only. Data communication is not encrypted.
- AuthNoPriv (Authentication/No privacy)
- Authentication makes use of the hash algorithms set for the user. Data communication is not encrypted.
- AuthPriv (Authentication and privacy)
- Authentication makes use of the hash algorithms set for the user. Data communication is encrypted by DES or AES algorithms.
