SNMP provides the ability to send traps to notify the administrator that trap conditions are met. Traps 
are network packets containing data relating to network devices, or SNMP agents, that send the 
traps. SNMP management applications can receive and interpret these packets, and optionally can 
perform responsive actions. SNMP trap generation is programmable on a trap-by-trap basis.

Use the 

screen to enable traps and to configure appropriate settings 

for reporting this information. Trap configuration depends on the network machine that receives the 
generated traps. SNMP v1/v2c and v3 trap configurations function independently. In a mixed SNMP 
environment, generated traps can be sent using configurations for both SNMP v1/v2c and v3.
