Configuring Avaya Aura Device Services to support a third-party SNMP server

Last Updated : Jun 08, 2026 |

About this task

This process:

  • Creates an SNMP user on the Avaya Aura® Device Services to match the one configured on the third-party SNMP server.

    Adds the third-party SNMP server as the destination for alarms from the Avaya Aura® Device Services server.

Before you begin

  • Configure the third-party server for SNMPv3 and create an SNMP user on that server.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Avaya Aura® Device Services CLI.
  2. Run the following command:

    cdto misc

  3. Run the following command:

    sudo ./setSNMPTrapDestination.sh -u <username> -A <authentication password> -X <encryption password> -x <encryption algortihm> -i <destination address> -p <destination port>

    where:

    • <username> is replaced with the SNMP username.

    • <authentication password> is the SNMP user's authentication password.

    • <encryption password> is the SNMP user's encryption password.

    • <encryption algorithm> is the encryption algorithm, either AES or DES.

    • <destination address> is the IP address of the third-party server running SNMP manager.

    • <destination port> is the IP port for SNMP traps on the third-party server.

    For example:

    sudo ./setSNMPTrapDestination.sh -u snmpadmin -A 12345678 -X 34567890 -x DES -i 10.133.32.69 -p 162
