Use the Trap Flags page to enable or disable traps the switch can send to an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) manager. When the condition identified by an active trap is encountered by the switch, a trap message is sent to any enabled SNMP Trap Receivers, and a message is written to the trap log.
To access this page, click
in the navigation menu.The fields available on the Trap Flags page depend on the packages installed on your system. For example, if your system does not have the BGP4 package installed, the BGP Traps field is not available. Trap Flags Configuration Fields shows the fields that are available on a system with all packages installed.
