Device
The options are:
  • SSG/SAL: Experience Portal sends SNMP traps to an Avaya Services Security Gateway (SSG)/Secure Access Link (SAL).
    Note:
    Experience Portal sends only Initialization and Administration System (INADS) traps to the SSG.
  • NMS: Experience Portal sends SNMP traps to a customer-provided Network Management System (NMS).
    Note:
    The Experience Portal system does not send INADS traps to the NMS.
Transport Protocol
The options are:
  • UDP: The transport protocol is set to User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
  • TCP: The transport protocol is set to Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).
Port
The port number the Experience Portal system uses to send SNMP traps.
Type
The options are:
  • Trap: Experience Portal sends notifications with the SNMP trap command.
  • Inform: Experience Portal sends notifications with the SNMP inform command.
SNMP Version
The options are:
  • 1: The SNMP agent uses SNMP Version 1 to send notifications.
  • 2c: The SNMP agent uses SNMP Version 2c to send notifications.
  • 3: The SNMP agent uses SNMP Version 3 to send notifications.
Security Name
The character string the Experience Portal SNMP agent uses as the identification name for the configuration.
Authentication Protocol
If the SNMP Version field is set to 3, this can be:

  • None: The system performs no message encryption and you cannot set a Privacy Password.
    You must select this option if the Authentication Protocol field is set to None.
