application. It depends on the implementation of your SNMP management software if this service
should be running or not on that computer.
Configure MonitorMagic SNMP traps
In order to be able to use SNNP traps as alarm actions, you must do a one-time configuration
action on the specific MonitorMagic service, to let it integrate with Microsoft's SNMP Service. See
Requirements SNMP traps for information how to install and configure that service first.
To configure MonitorMagic for SNMP traps, open the Network view window and browse to find
the computer running the MonitorMagic service. Right click the computer name and select the
menu option Configure service. In the configuration window, select the advanced tab, and click
the button "SNMP traps". You will be presented the following window:
When the current status is "not configured", as above, press "configure SNMP".
When the configuration was successful the status will change in OK. During the configuration
some registry settings of the SNMP service will be modified, and the SNMP service will be
restarted.
To send a test SNMP trap, press the Test SNMP trap button, and a SNMP trap with a standard
message will be send. When this succeeds the configuration is ready and you can start using
SNMP traps as alarm actions. Note that you can also test SNMP messages from the
corresponding tab in the Alarm action in the rule, see Testing MonitorMagic SNMP traps software.
Note: If you press Test SNMP trap and get a succesfull response, this means that the
MonitorMagic service was able to generate a SNMP trap and deliver the trap to the Microsoft
SNMP service running on the same computer. This does not guarantee that the trap is receievd
by another SNMP management application.
