Configuring the SNMPv3 Trap Notification

The notify statement specifies the type of notification (trap) and contains a single tag. The tag defines a set of target addresses to receive a trap. The tag list contains one or more tags and is configured at the [edit snmp v3 target-address target-address-name] hierarchy level. If the tag list contains this tag, the JUNOS software sends a notification to all the target addresses associated with this tag.

To configure the trap notifications, include the notify statement at the [edit snmp v3] hierarchy level:



[edit snmp v3]

notify name  {

tag tag-name;

type trap;
}

name is the name assigned to the notification.

tag-name defines the target addresses that are sent this notification. All the target-addresses that have this tag in their tag list are sent this notification. The tag-name is not included in the notification.

trap is the type of notification.

Note: Each notify entry name must be unique.

The JUNOS software supports two types of notification: trap and inform.

For information about how to configure the tag list, see Configuring the Tag List.

Example: Trap Notification Configuration

Specify three sets of destinations to send traps:



[edit snmp v3]
notify n1 {
tag router1;
type trap;
}
notify n2 {
tag router2;
type trap
}
notify n3 {
tag router3;
type trap;
}
