Resource Status Prints

When selected, once every 20 seconds, the trace includes a summary of the system memory resources and the number of connections. The messages are tagged with [RES:].

This option is only available if Development Tracing is selected.

SNMP Periodic Status Traps

This option is only available if Development Tracing is selected. When selected, the system outputs a periodic SNMP trap containing a summary of the current system status (memory usage, alarms count, channel available and in uses, etc). The trap information is sent to the SNMP destination configured in the IP Office system's System Alarms configuration. The frequency of sending is configurable between 20 to 7200 seconds. Status element is not included is both values would be 0.

Copy Trap data to log

If selected, the SNMP periodic status trap information is also included in the monitor logs.
