An SNMP trap recipient is a network management station that you designate to

recipients. To add a trap recipient, proceed as follows.
1. Select SNMP from the menu on the left side of the interface.
The tabbed SNMP property sheet appears.
2. Select the SNMP Trap Recipients tab.

be sent to this management station.
For a list of valid entries, see Appendix B, "SNMP Traps".
6. Select an SMNP version from the Ver si on list. Choose v3 unless you need
compatibility with older SNMP versions and have no security concerns, in which
case choose v2c.
7. If you chose SMNP v2c, enter a community string (a password or phrase) in the
Community Name text field. Then go to step 13.
8. If you chose SMNP v3, enter the name of the SNMP user that will have access to
the traps in the Trap User Name field.
9. To authenticate the user, select one of the methods listed in the SNMP v3
Authentication Protocol list. Choose SHA for best security or MD5 for
compatibility with systems that use MD5.
10. Enter a strong recipient-authentication password in the SNMP v3 Authentication
Passphrase text field and re-enter the password in the Verify Authentication
Passphrase field.
