The SNMP (Trap) Adapter consists of a UDP SNMP server listening for SNMP traps. It includes the SNMP Adapter Configuration Manager to convert information from Management Information Base (MIB) files into cell classes, and map and enumeration configuration files used to format traps into cell events.
The SNMP Configuration Manager has a web-based interface that enables you to perform the following tasks:
MapFile
parameter in the first enabled instance of the SNMP Adapter in the mcxa.conf file. The mcxa.conf file is located in the installationDirectory\pw\server\etc directory. installationDirectory\pw\server is the path to the cell and the BMC Event Adapters configuration and executable files. MapFile
parameter, the SNMP Configuration Manager uses the mcsnmptrapd.map file name by default. This book uses mcsnmptrapd.map to refer to the file that is configured for the MapFile
parameter.Before you install the SNMP Configuration Manager, you must install the BMC Event Adapters and enable the SNMP Adapter.
