SNMP Alerts

In order to make SNMP alerts work properly, please allow the following IP range in your firewall settings: 207.250.234.0/24

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) alert sends an SNMP trap to an SNMP management console, or server. This option integrates Dotcom-Monitor alerts directly into an IT management system, so alerts are treated and routed like any other alert within an enterprise. Currently, Dotcom-Monitor® supports SNMP v1, v2, and v3.

Dotcom-Monitor has a registered Enterprise OID, which is 31201. Alerts are sent as an Enterprise type, which is value six. For a custom bit, an Error alert is value one; an Uptime alert is value two; a Test alert is value three.

Alerts are sent over the Internet on a standard SNMP port.
