MSS reporting mechanism

Last Updated : Mar 25, 2020 |

MSS notifications are sent to the active MGC by the dynamic trap manager. MSS notifications sent to the active MGC by the dynamic trap manager are converted to syslog messages by the SNMP trap manager on the MGC.

MSS notifications are intercepted and, if certain conditions are met, may be forwarded to the Avaya Security Operations Center (SOC) as INADS alarms. The SOC is an Avaya service group that handles DoS alerts, responding as necessary to any DoS attack or related security issue.

Note:

The syslog messages on the active MGC are stored in the messages file on the MGC hard disk. You can view the syslog messages through the Avaya Maintenance Web Interface (MWI) if you want to debug security issues directly.

Any additional SNMP recipients defined with the security notification group enabled also receive the MSS notifications.
