Local Config of SNMP Management
The Local Config component, introduced in AMP 7.2, is used for local configuration of Dell PowerConnect W-
Series controllers. Locally configured settings are not pushed to local controllers by master controllers.
SNMP trap settings for controllers are managed locally. Trap settings for the AP are managed by group or global
configuration in Profiles > AP > SNMP. Refer to “Profiles > AP > SNMP” on page75 if you want to manage
AP settings.
To configure SNMP trap settings on a controller, navigate to the Local Config > SNMP Management page.
Select Add to create a new SNMP Management profile, or click the pencil icon to edit an existing profile.
