Can RAN-O devices send traps to MWTM and to another process on the same device?

Yes. You can configure your RAN-O devices to send SNMP traps to more than one process (such as MWTM and HP OpenView) on a single device. Each process receives traps on a different port number. However, to do so, you must configure a different community string for each process. For example, your RAN-O network configurations could include the following lines: snmp-server host 1.2.3.4 public udp-port 162 snmp-server host 1.2.3.4 otherCommunity udp-port 44750 where: •The first line configures the HP OpenView trap receiver, with community string public and UDP port number 162. •The second line configures the MWTM trap receiver, with community string otherCommunity and UDP port number 44750. You would then configure MWTM to receive traps on port number 44740. For information about how to configure the MWTM port number, see the “Enabling SNMP Traps (Server Only)” section on page 11-27.
