Table 1: Trap Target Parameters

ParameterDescription
NameSpecifies the name of the trap target, up to 32 characters.
FQDN

Specifies an FQDN for the trap target.  Use an FQDN to configure the SBC to use Service Discovery to point to up to eight IP address and port combinations as trap targets. Refer to Service Discovery for Trap Target Destinations and EMS Registration for more information on Service Discovery. Refer to Configuring Service Discovery for Trap Target Destinations and EMS Registration for information on FQDN naming conventions.

Note: If both an IP address and FQDN are specified for a trap target, the SBC uses first the resolved IP addresses from the FQDN. If no IP addresses are resolved for the FQDN, then the trap target falls back to the specified IP address.
