SNMP Event Configuration properties
Certain configuration properties are automatically created when an SNMP Event attribute group is added to the agent
After a data source is added, the configuration is displayed on the Runtime Configuration Information page of the Agent Editor. For example, Figure 1 shows the configuration sections and some 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:
SNMP Events configuration properties
Name Valid values Required Description Port Number positive integer Yes Required port number that is 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 File name that includes the path No Location of the trap configuration file. If the file is not located by 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). To specify them, specify the appropriate values for the security level you select.
