Configure notification by SNMP traps

Before you begin

To configure SNMP traps, you will require a server that will act as an SNMP server. The SNMP server can be any Windows or Linux system installed with a MIB browser, such as iReasoning.
The 100G Active Fail-Open chassis IP address should be reachable within the network.
The SNMP server and the 100G Active Fail-Open chassis should be able to communicate.
In addition, you will need to obtain the MIB files to decode alert codes sent by the 100G Active Fail-Open chassis. Refer to step 5 for more information.

Note
The SNMP feature of your 100G Active Fail-Open chassis can only be used to send notifications through SNMP traps.

Task

Login to the web interface of the 100G Active Fail-Open chassis.
Use default credentials to access the web interface.
To add an SNMP v3 user:
1. Go to SNMP → Agent.
2. Add a main SNMP v3 user and click Commit.
3. To save your configuration, select the Save tab.
  Click Save.
New user is added, type a password that is required for both Auth= sha and Priv= aes for the user.
To add Trap Hosts:
The main SNMP v3 server can be added in this section by configuring a host with same community/SNMP v3 user/password/auth&priv as per configured in step b for SNMP v3 users.
Note
The main SNMP v3 server (to be able to do GET/WALK function and receive traps from 100G Active Fail-Open module) and/or SNMP v1/v2c/v3 trap host(s) must have the same configuration as per configured here to be able to receive traps from 100G Active Fail-Open module.
1. Go to SNMP → Agent.
2. Enter an IPv4 Trap Host and click Add.
  - When configuring SNMP v1 or v2 trap user, only community string is user configurable with a minimum of 5 characters.
  - When configuring SNMP v3 trap user, Community/SNMP v3 User, Auth/Priv, and Password need to be configured.
    - Community/SNMP v3 User: Should be at least 5 characters for SNMP v3 user
    - Auth/Priv: Choose sha/aes or md5/des from the drop-down list
    - Password: Should be at least 8 characters
3. Click Commit.
4. To save your configuration, select the Save tab.
  Click Save.
To configure Trap Filter:
1. Go to SNMP → Trap Filter.
2. Select All or individual traps to be generated.
3. Click Commit.
4. To save your configuration, select the Save tab.
  Click Save.
To access MIB file:
1. Go to SNMP → Mib File.
2. Select a MIB file from the available list and click Download.
  
  It generates a MIB file.
  Note
  Use this MIB file on your main SNMP v3 or Trap Host servers to translate all MIB OIDs being generated.
3. To save your configuration, select the Save tab.
  Click Save.
To view the SNMP status and Engine ID:
1. Go to Status → SNMP.
  
  The page displays the SNMP status and Engine ID.
