SNMP Trap When backup failed on G700

[karlzre]

Hello,

I want to configure the G700 (CM4.0) with an s8500 to send an SNMP trap when the backup of the configuration failed.

Anybody know how can i do that?

Thanks

You need the Avaya SNMP proxy agent. The Avaya products don't send SNMP natively. They send an Avaya proprietary alert and it has to be converted to SNMP by the proxy agent and then sent to an SNMP monitor.

Avaya sells the proxy agent bundled with AIM, or used to. I don't think it's needed on the newer software.

You can also use a 3rd party app like Alarmtraq.

You will also need the Avaya MIBs. You can google for all of that info.

I believe that Definity systems (old architecture) need a proxy agent to talk SNMP, but CM systems (linux-based) and Media Gateways (G700) have SNMP built-in.
Here is the MIB for the G700:

http://support.avaya.com/elmodocs2/G700/G700MGv1_2MIB.txt

It looks like this is the trap you are interested in:
cmgConfigUploadFaul ... DESCRIPTION "An attempt to upload a configuration file has failed." ...

On a quick read, I think
set snmp community ... will set the community string
set snmp trap ... to set the receiver address

I found it useful to create a unique comunity string for the phone system.
Examples:
Community name: voice
Read: voicer
Read/write: voicerw
