Trap Event Reports
The Trap Event Report provides detailed visibility into SNMP trap data collected from various network devices. This report allows you to analyze trap messages, timestamps, sources, and associated object identifiers (OIDs) over a defined period. It is particularly useful for diagnosing network anomalies, monitoring device health, and validating event-based alerts generated through SNMP.
Select the data to be displayed on the report
To create a custom trap event report, follow the steps below and configure the fields according to your reporting needs:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Counter | Choose the counter for which you want to create the polling data report. This defines the specific performance metric you want to monitor, such as CPU utilization, memory usage, or network traffic. |
| Source Filter | Select the specific source filter to include in the report. |
| Source | Select the specific sources to include in the report. |
| Filters | Use additional filters to further refine the dataset included in the report. |
By configuring these fields, you can create a custom trap event report that aligns with your network monitoring requirements and provides actionable insights into your SNMP trap data.
Select how the data will be displayed on the report
Changing the order of columns on the report
Use the simple drag and drop method to arrange the order of the columns. Drag the columns from the Column Setting tab and arrange them in the order you want to display on the report.
Changing the column display name
You can change the column names in the report. Enter the column name that you wish to display on the report in the Display Name field of the corresponding column under the Column Setting tab.
Hide a column on the report
You can remove a column that you do not wish to display on the report by hiding the column from the Column Setting tab. Click on the check box titled Hide Column to hide the column on the report.
Change the column header size
You can change the column header size from the Header Font Size dropdown under the Style tab.
Configure the columns in detail
Click on the Configure option against the corresponding column you wish to configure from the Column Setting tab. A pop-up to configure the column appears.
The available options in the configuration pop-up are as follows:
| Configuration Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Resizable | Use this toggle button to enable the resizing of the column width using drag and drop in the report. |
| Sortable | Use this toggle button to enable sorting of the report using the values of the selected column. |
| Orderable | Use this toggle button to enable the option to change the order of the selected column using drag and drop in the report. |
| Width(%) | Enter the width (in percentage) of the column as you want it to display on the report. |
| Add Color Configuration | Select this option to configure the color of the column values on the report based on fixed threshold conditions (e.g., highlight traps with critical severity). |
| Add Value Configuration | Select this option to configure the display values of the column on the report based on predefined conditions. |
| Icon | Select a suitable icon that you wish to display with the values of the column (e.g., warning, error, info icons). |
| Icon Position | Select whether you want to display the icon selected in the previous option as a prefix or a suffix to the values in the column. |
| Case | This option allows you to control how column names are displayed. You can choose from the following case styles: - Normal: Displays the column name in its original format. - Uppercase: Displays all letters in capital letters (for example, MONITOR). - Lowercase: Displays all letters in small letters (for example, monitor). - Camel Case: Displays the column name with the first letter capitalized (for example, Monitor). |
You can also Sort the columns by selecting Counter and Top/ Last option under the Sorting table.
By customizing these column settings, you can enhance the visualization and clarity of your Trap Event Reports, ensuring that critical SNMP events are highlighted, sorted, and formatted according to your operational requirements.
