SOA Governance and API Management : Administering Mediator : Mediator Configurations : SNMP Destinations for Run-Time Events : Setting Mediator to Use the CentraSite SNMP Server
Setting Mediator to Use the CentraSite SNMP Server
You can set Mediator to use the CentraSite SNMP server, which uses SNMPv3 user-based security model. The CentraSite server must have an SNMP receiver running in order to receive SNMP notifications from Mediator.
Mediator’s server-side SNMP configuration must be in sync with CentraSite’s client-side configuration. By default, the configuration defaults are synched up. CentraSite’s configuration is statically defined in a war file in CentraSite’s event receiver, located here:
CentraSite_directory/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml
For details, see the section Run-Time Governance Reference > Run-Time Events and Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Metrics > Configuring CentraSite to Receive Run-Time Events and Metrics in the CentraSite documentation.
To set Mediator to use the CentraSite SNMP server
1. Open the Integration Server Administrator if it is not already open.
2. In the Navigation panel, select Solutions > Mediator > Administration > SNMP.
3. On the SNMP Configuration screen, click Edit.
4. Under CentraSite SNMP Configuration, select the Send TRAPs to CentraSite check box.
5. Set the CentraSite SNMP Configuration parameters as follows:
For this parameter...
Specify...
Host Name/IP Address
The host on which the CentraSite server is installed and running.
The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp.host in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml.
The server name cannot be localhost or the loopback (127.0.0.1).
For details, see the section Run-Time Governance Reference > Run-Time Events and Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Metrics > Configuring CentraSite to Receive Run-Time Events and Metrics in the CentraSite documentation.
Port
The port to which the CentraSite SNMP listener is bound. The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp.port in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml. The default is 8181.
Note:  
If Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) is installed (or will be installed) on the same machine hosting Integration Server/Mediator, then you may want to change the default SNMP port of 8181 to something else, to avoid any potential runtime conflicts when sending SNMP packets.
Transport
The protocol used by SNMP to send traps. The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp. transport in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml. Valid values are TCP (default) and UDP.
User Name
The SNMPv3 user name to use when connecting to the receiver. The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp. securityName in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml.
Use Authorization (optional)
Whether an authorization key is required. It is set to off by default. You cannot edit the authorization fields unless Use Authorization is selected.
Authorization Password / Retype Authorization Password
The key to be used for authorization. The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp.auth PassPhraseKey in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml.
Authorization Protocol
The authorization protocol to use. The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp.auth Protocol in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml. Valid values are MD5 (default) or SHA.
Use Privacy (optional)
Whether a privacy (encryption) key is required. It is set to off by default. You cannot edit the privacy fields unless Use Privacy is selected.
Privacy Password / Retype Privacy Password
The key to be used for privacy. The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp.priv PassPhraseKey in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml.
Privacy Protocol
The privacy protocol to use. The value must match the value of the property com.softwareag.centrasite.soalink.events.snmp.priv Protocol in CentraSite's Event Listener configuration file <CentraSite_directory>/cast/cswebapps/SOALinkSNMPEventsListener/WEB-INF/web.xml. Valid values are DES (default), AES128, AES192, AES256, 3DES, and DESEDE.
