Figure 5- 4. SNMP window
Under SNMP Management, enable or disable SNMP Agent or SNMP Traps by using the check
boxes. An SNMP Agent is software that runs locally on the device. A defined set of variables
(managed objects) is maintained by the SNMP agent and used to manage the device. Traps are
messages that alert network personnel of events that occur on the Switch. The events can be as serious
as a reboot (someone accidentally turned OFF the Switch), or less serious like a port status change.
The Router generates traps and sends them to the trap recipient (or network manager). Typical traps
include trap messages for Authentication Failure, Topology Change and Broadcast/Multicast Storms.
