Viewing Messages in the Trap Monitor Window
The Trap Monitor menu bar contains the following options:
File -- Lets you exit the tool.
View -- Lets you view only a subset of the trap messages by type or IP address.
You view trap messages in real time using the Trap Monitor (refer to Figure 7-10
).
Table 7-4
describes the window contents.
Viewing Specific Trap Messages
After you load the trap messages, you can filter the trap messages you view in the
Trap Monitor window.
Remember that filtering the messages has no effect on which trap messages the
SNMP agent sends to the Site Manager workstation. To specify the types of
messages sent by the SNMP agent, see “Selecting Trap Messages
” on page 7-7.
Using the Trap Monitor, you can filter trap messages by trap type (which is the
same as the event severity level) or by IP address.
