SNMP Traps

Your Express5800/320Ma system supports the Microsoft SNMP Agent, which enables
third-party Enterprise Management consoles to remotely monitor the systems. The
ftServer SNMP Agent provides a standard mechanism for monitoring the status of
systems and for receiving alarms from the systems.
During instances of system malfunction or in response to a system event, such as a
firmware update, you may see multiple traps in third-party management consoles for
various devices. For instance, if a PCI adapter fails, the SNMP agent may send traps
not only for the adapter but also for its slot. You may safely disregard these traps.
See the Express5800/320Ma: Software Installation and Configuration Guide for SNMP
configuration information.

Installing Hotfixes and Security Updates

Use caution when applying hotfixes from any source. Applying updates indiscriminately
may introduce serious problems to your Express5800/320Ma system.
Refer to the following guidelines before updating your system:
•
Do not install other types of hotfixes, such as Microsoft patches that fix a particular
problem, before obtaining validation from NEC Solutions (America), Inc.
•
You can use Windows Automatic Update to download hotfixes, but do not allow
Windows to install them automatically.
