Understanding SNMP basics 1 FA traps Consider enabling the FA traps if you want to use SNMP to monitor multiple connectivity units, including Brocade switches. The switchStatusPolicySet command determines the FA-TRAP switch status-related outputs: • connUnitStatusChange This trap is generated by Fabric watch such that only the swUnitsStatusChange is controlled by switchStatusPolicySet command. • connUnitSensorStatusChange This trap is generated by any sensor event. • connUnitPortStatusChange This trap sends the instance of connUnitPortName as part of the trap; the instance string is NULL, if the port name is not defined for the specified port. • connUnitEventTrap All the external traps gets converted into swEventTrap except for AN-1006, AUTH-3001 to AUTH-3008, FW-3001, SEC-3001 to SEC-3034, and SEC-3044 to SEC-3048 RASlog messages. Events in the Error Log of a severity at or above the configured threshold will generate SNMP traps. The Fibre Alliance Trap (FA-TRAP) can be configured to send traps using the snmpConfig command. For more information on this command, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference. HA traps Consider enabling these traps to monitor field-replaceable unit (FRU) status and control processor (CP) status when you have a Brocade director in your environment: • fruStatusChanged This trap is generated by a FRU status change, such as a switch reboot or disabling or enabling a FRU component such as fandisable, fanenable and so on. • cpStatusChanged This trap is generated by a change in the status of a CP, including a reboot or firmware download. • fruHistoryTrap This trap is generated when a FRU is added or removed. It is not generated when standby CP is removed. The high availability trap (HA-TRAP) can be configured to send traps using the snmpConfig command. For more information on this command, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference. SW traps There are fourteen specific traps defined in Brocade SW-TRAP. 1. swfault (no longer supported) 2. swSensorScn (no longer supported) Fabric OS MIB Reference 5 53-1002151-01
