xcmGenBaseSNMPTrapCommunity 1.3.6.1.4.1.253.8.51.1.2.1.15

This object is used to specify a 'trap community name' valid for use in SNMPv1c and SNMPv2c 'Inform|Trap' PDUs received (SNMP requests) and generated (SNMP traps) by this management agent. Usage: Note that the object 'xcmGenBaseSNMPWriteCommunity' SHALL ALSO be used to specify a 'read community name' valid for use in SNMPv1c and SNMPv2c 'Get|GetNext|GetBulk' PDUs received (SNMP requests) and generated (SNMP responses) by this management agent. Note however that the object 'xcmGenBaseSNMPTrapCommunity' SHALL NOT be used to specify a 'read community name' valid in SNMP 'Get|GetNext|GetBulk'. Note: XCMI-defined community name objects support 64 octets maximum length and configurable charsets, for consistency with the 'snmpCommunityName' object defined in the SNMP Community MIB defined in RFC 2576 (March 2000). Note: Products MAY ship with a market-specific factory default locale with a charset other than 'utf-8', eg, in Japan a product might factory default to 'shift-jis(17)' or 'iso-2022-jp(39)'. Such products MUST implement the 'xcmGenFixedLocalizationTable', to prevent ambiguity about the factory default charset. Usage: For best interworking with the ('utf-8' charset ONLY) closely related 'snmpCommunitySecurityName' object in RFC 2576, conforming management stations and management agents SHOULD NOT configure community names longer than 32 octets. Usage: For best interworking with third-party applications, conforming management stations and management agents SHOULD NOT configure empty (zero-length or all spaces) community names. Usage: All XCMI conforming management agents are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to support an authenticated SNMP SetRequest to this object, changing the system 'trap community name' (for best interworking with third-party management stations). Usage: All XCMI conforming management agents: a) SHALL return a zero length string in response to an SNMP GetRequest of this object; b) are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to default this object to the string 'public' (in the static charset); and c) MAY support multiple valid 'trap community names' (by using 'xcmGenBaseTrapCommunity' as a 'window' to a community list via 'device[Set|List]' device operations in the Device Mgmt group of the XCMI Host Resources Ext MIB). Usage: This object is of type 'XcmFixedLocaleDisplayString' (see DESCRIPTION of 'xcmGenBaseSNMPReadCommunity' above). If 'xcmGenLocalizationTable' or 'xcmGenFixedLocalizationTable' are not implemented on this host system, then the charset SHALL be 'utf-8(106)', ISO 10646-1 in 'UTF-8' stream encoding. Usage: All XCMI conforming management agents SHALL allow any defined character in the configured charset of this object. All XCMI conforming management stations SHOULD NOT write control characters or other non-display characters into this object. WARNING: Changing the only valid 'trap community name' of an SNMP management agent will cause a COMPLETE loss of communications unless all associated SNMP management stations (clients) ALSO change over to the new 'trap community name'!!!
