How SNMP traps work with data sources

SNMP traps allow data sources to accept standard SNMP traps from any manageable network device capable of sending SNMP traps.

Standard SNMP traps include:

  • Authentication Failure

  • Cold Start

  • EGP Neighbor Loss

  • Link Down

  • Link Up and Warm Start

Note

To send SNMP traps through IPv6, you must formulate the IPv6 address as an IPv4 conversion address. For example, converting 10.0.2.84 to IPv6 looks like:

2001:470:B:654:0:0:10.0.2.84 or 2001:470:B:654::A000:0254
