SNMP Feature Overview
The MeetingPlace SNMP feature supports all the standard “MIB II” queries
and a set of MeetingPlace MIB traps. The MIB II queries include
information such as the MeetingPlace server name, location, and contact
name, plus various statistics regarding the network interface.
and a set of MeetingPlace MIB traps. The MIB II queries include
information such as the MeetingPlace server name, location, and contact
name, plus various statistics regarding the network interface.
The MeetingPlace MIB traps are generated under the following conditions:
•
T1 status
If a T1 line goes down
•
Gateway System Integrity Manager (SIM)
Whenever the Gateway SIM
registers an alarm
•
Server startup
Whenever the server restarts or crashes (cold start)
•
Major hardware alarm
Whenever a major hardware failure occurs
•
Major software alarm
Whenever a major software failure occurs
•
Minor hardware alarm
Whenever a minor hardware failure occurs
•
Minor software alarm
Whenever a minor software failure occurs
Each major and minor hardware and software notification includes an
integer alarm code, codes that indicate which software module and server
reported the alarm. For hardware alarms, four additional codes identify the
device type, the device address, slot number, and port number. The MIB
defines these fields.

A new MIB file, named lattraps.mib (which is in SNMP version 1 format)
contains all the MIB alarms. It replaces the three current files. You must load
the new MIB file into your monitoring system and configure it to enable the
trap messages to display properly. To download lattraps.mib, go to the
Latitude Customer Support Resource Center (http://support.latitude.com/).

Note: As a rule, each alarm instance generates a separate
notification. However, in some cases, one specific incident
could trigger multiple types of alarms.

Setting up Contact and Location Information
With the MeetingPlace SNMP option installed, you can see MeetingPlace
servers from any SNMP Management station without supplying special
configuration information. However, to control access to the MeetingPlace
SNMP module and set up SNMP data exchange, you must supply
information in the Network Management Information and Network
Management Communities topics of the Configure tab.
