System Wide Configuration for SNMP

This section describes the system-wide SNMP parameters found in the System Configuration element. These parameters set global SNMP information.

Set the following parameters to configure system wide SNMP functionality:

1. mib-system-contact—Set the contact information used within the system’s MIB transactions. The SNMP agent sends this information to an NMS in response to an SNMP Get for the MIB-II sysContact MIB variable. This parameter’s value can be a textual identification of your company’s contact person for the system and information about how to contact that person.
2. mib-system-name—Set the identification of this Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller presented within MIB transactions. This value, along with the target name of the system (identified in the boot parameters) are the values reported for MIB-II when an SNMP GET is issued by the NMS for the MIB-II sysName variable. This parameter has no direct relation to the hostname parameter in the system configuration element.

   By convention, this is the node’s FQDN. For SNMP MIB-II sysName GETs, the system returns SNMP communications in the following format: <targetName>[.<mib-system-name>]

   targetName is the value configured in the target name (tn) boot parameter and mib-system-name is the value configured in this field.

3. mib-system-location—Set the physical location of this Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller that is reported within MIB transactions. This parameter is reported when an SNMP GET is issued by the NMS for the MIB-II sysLocation variable. This parameter has no direct relation to the location field in the system configuration element.
4. snmp-enabled—Set the SNMP system on this Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller to enabled or disabled. By default, this parameter is set to enabled. The valid values are:

   • enabled | disabled

5. enable-snmp-syslog-notify—Set whether SNMP traps are sent when the system generates an alarm message. The SNMP agent sends a trap when an alarm is generated if the following conditions are met:

   • SNMP is enabled.

   • This field is enabled.

   • The syslog severity level is equal to or greater than the severity level configured in the SNMP Syslog Level field.

     The default is disabled. Valid values are:

   • enabled | disabled

6. enable-snmp-monitor-traps—When this parameter is enabled, the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller generates traps with unique trap-IDs for each syslog event. If this parameter is disabled , a single trap-ID is used for all events, with different values in the description string. The default is disabled. The valid values are:

   • enabled | disabled

7. enable-snmp-auth-traps—Set whether the SNMP authentication traps are enabled. If an SNMP request fails authentication because of an IPv4 address and SNMP community mismatch, the SNMP request will be rejected. This field determines if an SNMP trap will be sent in response to the authentication failure. The default is disabled. Valid values for this parameter are:

   • enabled | disabled

8. enable-env-monitor-traps—Set whether or not the SNMP environment monitor traps are enabled. Environment traps include main board PROM temperature, CPU voltage, power supplies, fan speeds, etc. The default is disabled. Valid values for this parameter are:

   • enabled | disabled

9. snmp-syslog-his-table-length—Set the length of the syslog trap history table. When a syslog message that meets the SNMP syslog level field criteria is generated and SNMP is enabled, the SNMP agent adds that message to a history table. This parameter indicates the number of entries the table can contain. The default is 1. The valid range is:

   • Minimum—1

   • Maximum—500

     Once the last table entry is filled, the oldest entry will be overwritten with a new entry.

10. snmp-syslog-level—Set the log severity level threshold that will cause the syslog trap to be sent to an NMS. When this criteria is met and the appropriate SNMP trap is sent, an entry is written to the SNMP Syslog History Table. The default is warning. The following are valid values:

    • emergency | critical | major | minor | warning | notice | info | trace | debug | detail
