5. Choose File > Save to save the configuration file.
See Chapter 3, “Modifying and Saving Router Configurations,” for more
instructions on saving configuration files.
Specifying Trap Messages by Protocol Entity and Event Severity
If you configure an SNMP manager’s trap type to specific, you instruct the SNMP
agent to send trap messages based on the protocol entity and event severity level
that you specify. You must specify both criteria. For example, if you select IP as
the entity and Fault as the event severity, you receive only IP fault messages. If
you want messages for another entity, you must specify a separate entry.
To set up specific trap messages:
1. In the Configuration Manager window, choose Protocols > IP > SNMP >
Trap Configuration > Interfaces.

* Specifying generic or specific trap messages minimizes the agent’s use of router resources.
Description
All Instructs the agent to transmit cold-start and warm-start traps, as well as
all other enabled traps (authentication failure, fault, warning, debug,
information, and trace traps).
Generic Instructs the agent to transmit well-defined SNMP traps (cold-start,
warm-start, and authentication failure traps).
The agent is automatically enabled to send cold-start and warm-start
traps. To transmit authentication failure trap messages, you must enable
the Authentication Failure Trap parameter. See
Configuring SNMP, BootP,
and DHCP Services
for instructions.
Specific Instructs the agent to send only trap messages for a specific protocol
entity and event severity level (fault, warning, debug, information, and
trace).
See “Specifying Trap Messages by Protocol Entity and Event Severity
” on
page 7-9
for instructions.
None Prohibits the SNMP agent from transmitting traps to the SNMP manager.
