Discover devcies in OpManager via Trap
Discovery via Trap
SNMP traps are cryptic messages or alerts sent from a SNMP device. Traps are sent by the SNMP agent when there is a change in its environment such as hardware changes, login failure, patch upgrade, new client connectivity, etc. If these traps are redirected to the OpManager server, the devices sending them will be automatically discovered/added into OpManager when the Discover devices via trap option is enabled.
To enable trap based discovery in OpManager,
- Go to Settings -> Discovery -> Discovery Settings.
- Enable the Discover devices via trap option.
- Save the changes. Once enabled, the traps from new sources will be received and automatically discovered in OpManager.
