Customizing the rules file

The Probe for Nokia-Siemens TNMS-SNMP Interface is supplied with a default rules file that instructs the probe how to process the traps received from the TNMS-SNMP Interface; you must customize this file for your environment. To process events received from the interface correctly, make the following changes to the rules file:

  1. Locate the line that sets the $TnmsGetCommunity string: $TnmsGetCommunity = "public"
  2. Change public to the read-only community string set in the TNMS proxy agent.
  3. Locate the line that sets the $TnmsSetCommunity string: $TnmsSetCommunity = "public"
  4. Change public to the read-write community string set in the TNMS proxy agent.
