SNMP Event Messages
SNMP Trap notifications (messages) are displayed in your SNMP trap watcher application.
SNMP event messages are generated when the following occur:
• a system level service is activated or stopped
• a Nortel Networks configurable service is activated or stopped
SNMP events are characterized by the following severity levels:
• Error
•Warning
• Information
Using the component ID and event ID summary tables
The BCM Alarm system denotes the source of a BCM alarm as “Component ID”, whereas the
SNMP system denotes the source of the same information as a trap of source “eventSource”. The
terminology used in this document of Component ID (alarm) / eventSource (trap) is intended to
show that these two systems call the same information by a different name.
Use the table “Component ID (alarm)/eventSource (trap) summary” on page 92 to navigate to the
SNMP event displayed in your SNMP trap watcher application.
Alternatively, use “Component ID alarms/eventSource (Trap) by event ID” on page 95 to identify
SNMP event ID and display the associated SNMP trap message and appropriate maintenance
activity.
The alarm description provides the following information:
• associated service name
• event ID number
• alarm interpretation and corrective actions
• associated logs
To use the alarm summary table
1 Examine the alarm name shown in the alarm browser.
2 Select the corresponding link shown in “Component ID (alarm)/eventSource (trap) summary”
on page 92 under Alarm name.
The alarm description is displayed.
“Component ID (alarm)/eventSource (trap) summary” on page 92 also displays the service
associated with the alarm.
3 Select the associated service name link to display the service description (see “Service
Definitions” on page 251).
