Hello

Can you please tell how can we how can we differentiate the "timeout" severity from others (critical, major, minor, etc.) when we send "timeout" events from Dataminer to a 3rd party system via "SNMP forward" ?

Thank you.

Best regards

Hi Bruno,

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but the severityID of the timeout alarm will be 17. This way you can differentiate the timeout alarms from the other alarms.

Hi Bruno,

A possible option is to configure a SNMP Manager with:

  • A different binding OID (a custom OID that you know represents a timeout alarm)

  • A filter that only accepts alarms with 'Timeout' severity

Below an example of the trap forwarded:
