Support of SNMP Traps of Enterasys Appliances

[Michael_Kirchne]

Hi,

I would like to request the support SNMP Traps of Appliances. For example if one of the redundant power supplies of a NAC Appliance (e.g. NAC-A-20) fails. But not just real hardware. I experienced some problems with the virtual NAC Gateways when there were some problems with the storage. So the NAC Gateway switched to Read Only and could not update configuration ort CRLs which can cause big problems.

To avoid problems and to build a sustainable network it is necessary to include the hardware in the NetSight monitoring.

This FR references the problem: https://community.enterasys.com/enterasys/topics/nac_a_20_snmp_alert_if_reduntant_power_supply_fails

Best Regards
Michael

Hi Michael,
I have asked my product marketing director to provide an update. Thanks for keeping this going!

I could not believe that there is no trap if the power supply fails. This is essential ans should be implemented asap.

There is no trap when the power supply of a NAC appliance fails??

I'd also like to support Michael on this: Isn't this one of the main reasons for Network Management?!
