How to manually send snmp traps from Cisco MDS SAN Switches

[anand.gopinath1]

Hi Team

We are busy integrating our Cisco MDS SAN Switches ( fw 6.2(3) )  with BPPM .

For this we need to send snmp traps to BPPM server .

Is there a way we can manually send traps  ( as a test  ) from the Cisco MDS cli  ??

Appreciate your quick response in this regard

Hi Anand

Have a look at

Hi Anand,

This will send a trap to the configured trap destination(s):

switch# test pfm snmp test-trap ?
  fan          Generate a test SNMP Trap for fan
  powersupply  Generate a test SNMP Trap for PowerSupply
  temp_sensor  Generate a test SNMP Trap for Temperature

Best regards,

Jim
