Configuring the GSM as an SNMP Agent
 
Creating a GSM SNMP Agent for all Alarms
Creating a GSM SNMP Agent for an Individual Alarm
Any iControl GSM can be made to act as an SNMP agent. The GSM SNMP agent reports the status and alarms of Grass Valley’s Densité and Imaging cards and frames (along with every other alarmable entity visible in the GSM Alarm Browser) in the form of an SNMP table (click HERE). This table can be queried or polled for alarms and statuses by any third party SNMP Manager.
You can configure the GSM to act as an SNMP agent for all alarms or you can configure the GSM as an SNMP agent for an individual alarm. Additionally, you may have multiple instances of the GSM-as-SNMP-agent when the agents represent different alarms.
