Destination Filter Form

[This is the context-sensitive Help topic for the Incident Configuration: Trap Forwarding Filter form.]

Pre-requisite: Make sure you have used the NNMi nnmincidentcfg.ovpl command line utility to automatically create or update the incident configurations for the SNMP traps you want to include. See Load SNMP Trap Incident Configurations for more information. You must also create the Trap Forwarding Filters for the SNMP traps you want to forward. See Configure Trap Forwarding Filters for more information.

The Trap Forwarding Filter Form enables you to specify the Trap Forwarding Filters that you want to apply for the SNMP traps NNMi forwards to the specified Trap Forwarding Destination.

Note See Manage Incoming SNMP Traps for information about the criteria NNMi uses to determine when to receive or discard traps.

To configure the Trap Forwarding Filters:

  1. Make your configuration choices (see table).
  2. Click  Save and Close to save your changes and return to the Trap Forwarding Configuration form.
