Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) actions are used to post
SNMP traps in response to the triggering of an associated policy.
To create a new SNMP trap
action:
If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
In the left
pane of the Console, select Diagnostics > Diagnostic
Modules.
In the
Diagnostic System Modules table, select the name
of the diagnostic system module you want to assign the action
to.
Select Configuration > Policies and Actions >
Actions.
Click New.
Select SNMP Trap from the Type list and click
Next.
Enter a name for the action in the Action
Name field.
Enter the timeout period in the Timeout (in
seconds) field. The timeout period is the length of time,
in seconds, that an action has to complete execution. By default, the
timeout period is 0, which disables the action
timeout.
To enable or disable this action, select or deselect the
Enable Action box.
