Creating OpsCenter SNMP trap recipients
Traps or interrupts are signals sent to inform the programs that an event has occurred. In OpsCenter, traps are the notifications that are sent to a specified SNMP host or group of hosts when a condition is met.
A trap recipient is a host that receives notifications in the form of SNMP traps when an alert condition is met. For example, a trap is sent after an alert was generated as a result of failure of communication between the OpsCenter Agent and Server.
For more details, refer to the About using SNMP with OpsCenter section.
