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.
The MeetingPlace MIB traps are generated under the following conditions:
Each major and minor hardware and software notification includes an integer 
alarm code that indicates 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 MIB file, named lattraps.mib (which is in SNMP version 1 format) contains 
all the MIB alarms. You must load this MIB file into your monitoring system 
and configure it to enable the trap messages to display properly. To download 
lattraps.mib, go to the MeetingPlace Customer Support Resource Center for 
Cisco MeetingPlace (http://support.latitude.com/).
For more information about SNMP, see 
 For a list of 
major and minor alarms, go to the MeetingPlace Customer Support Resource

OTE
 Normally, each alarm instance generates a separate notification. In 
some cases, however, 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. To control access to the MeetingPlace SNMP 
module and set up SNMP data exchange, however, you must supply 
information in the Network Management Information and Network 
Management Communities topics of the Configure tab.
