Trap Generation
You can configure the software so that events received by the system generate SNMP traps, which
the software can send to another event-monitoring system. The software allows up to five SNMP trap
destinations. The software can send either SNMPv1 or SNMPv2 traps. Whichever SNMP version
you select will be used for all trap destinations. The default is SNMPv1. To change the default to
SNMPv2, see ”Changing the Default to SNMPv2” on page 178.
The software provides an SNMP MIB for each SNMP version that you can compile into your existing
enterprise framework. This MIB contains trap definitions so your enterprise framework can
understand the traps. The MIB can be found in HPSE-Traps-v1.mib for SNMPv1 or
HPSE-Traps-v2.mib for SNMPv2 located in the %MGR_DIST%\Tools directory and in the Tools
directory on the CIM Extension CD-ROM. You should only compile one of the two MIBs into your
enterprise framework. Choose the MIB file that corresponds to the SNMP version you are using.
The software does not have the capability to forward traps received from other devices. It can take
events from Event Manager and create SNMP traps from them. These traps are generated using an
SNMP MIB.
