Managers Tab of SNMP Configuration

A manager station is an application or device used to monitor SNMP-enabled hardware and software such as Sun Java System servers. When the master agent detects a condition that needs to be signalled to the manager station, the master agent sends an SNMP trap message.

Use this panel to define the manager stations known to the master agent. The table lists all management stations to which the master agent will send traps when necessary. The Manager Details box below the table shows the port and community string to be used when sending a trap to the given manager station.

Manager Station. This field contains the hostname or IP address of the manager station selected in the table.

Trap Port. This field shows the port to which trap messages will be sent on the host of the selected manager station.

With Community. This field shows the community string that will be used in trap messages sent to the selected manager station.

Add. Click this box to display a dialog for adding a new manager station.

Edit. Select a manager station in the table and click this button to modify the its hostname, port number or community string.

Remove. Select a manager station in the table and click this button to remove it from the master agent. SNMP traps will no longer be sent to the removed manager.
