SNMP Notification Filters
The Notification Filter page enables configuring SNMP notification filters and Object IDs (OIDs) that are checked. After creating a notification filter, it is possible to attach it to a notification recipient in the SNMPv1,2 Notification Recipient page, and SNMP v3 Notification Recipient page.
The notification filter enables filtering the type of SNMP notifications that are sent to the management station based on the OID of the notification to be sent.
To define a notification filter:
- Click SNMP > Notification Filter. The Notification Filter page opens.
The Notification Filter page displays notification information for each filter. The table is able to filter notification entries by Filter Name.
- Click Add. The Add Notification Filter page opens.
- Enter the parameters.
- Filter Name--Enter a name.
- Object ID Subtree--Select the node in the MIB tree that is included or excluded in the selected SNMP view. The options are:
- Select from List--Enables you to navigate the MIB tree. Click Up to go to the level of the selected node's father and siblings. Click Down to descend to the level of the selected node's descendents. Click the nodes in the view to pass from one node to its brother. Use the scrollbar to bring siblings into view.
- Object ID--Enter an OID not offered in the Select from List option (if required). All descendents of this node are included or excluded in the view.
- If Select from List is used, the object identifier of the selected node is included in or excluded from the view if the Include in filter option is selected.
- If Object ID is used, the entered object identifier is included in the view if the Include in filter option is selected.
- Include in filter--If you used Select from List, the object identifier of the selected node is included in the notification filter if this option is selected. If you used Object ID, the entered object identifier is included in the notification filter if this option is selected.
- Click Apply. The SNMP views are defined, and the Running Configuration file is updated.
