Configuration

After a data source has been added, the configuration is displayed on the Runtime Configuration page of the Agent Editor. For example, Figure 102 shows the configuration sections and some of the configuration properties that are automatically created when an SNMP Event attribute group is added to the agent.

The labels, descriptions, and default values of predefined configuration properties can be changed, but variable names and types cannot be changed. The SNMP Events configuration section contains the following properties:

Table 11. SNMP Events configuration properties

Name	Valid values	Required	Description
Port Number	positive integer	Yes	Required port number used for listening to events
Security Level	noAuthNoPriv, authNoPriv, authPriv	No	SNMP V3 security level
User Name	String	No	SNMP V3 user name
Auth Protocol	MD5 or SHA	No	SNMP V3 authentication protocol
Auth Password	String	No	SNMP V3 authentication password
Priv Password	String	No	SNMP V3 privacy password
Trap configuration file	Filename including path	No	Location of the trap configuration file. If the file is not located using this configuration property, an attempt is made to find a trapcnfg file in the agent bin directory.

No configuration is required for V1 or V2C events. All V1 or V2C events are processed regardless of the source or community name specified. The only supported privacy protocol is DES, so there is no option to specify the privacy protocol. The SNMP V3 configuration options are not required (each can be optionally specified). If you need to specify them, you must specify the appropriate values for the security level you select.
