PowerShell/iLO4 issue with SNMP trap communities

LGentile — Fri, 11 Jul 2014 10:47:34 GMT

Hello,

Hopefully this is the right location for this question.

I am testing a configuration script using PowerShell and am having difficulty getting the SNMP trap communities to populate. I am using this parameter: -SNMPAddress1TrapCommunityValue but after running the script, the first trap community entry is blank. This has to be the correct paramater since there are 3 of them and 3 of the trap community fields. The only other possible one is -SNMPAddress1TrapCommunityVersion - i did this same, same result.

I have tested against a few different firmwares, mostly using 1.40 right now.

Anyone else see this issue? Other fields populate fine (SNMP trap destination, passthru false, etc..)

Thanks

I may have partially figured this out.

The TrapCommunityValue parameter requires the TrapCommunityVersion with it. Now the problem is, I am not sure what input the Version parameter wants. It's a string type so it's not as easy as 1, 2, or 3, which I assume is because there is an SNMP v2c.. so, do i put in 2c, just 2?

I'll just have to test the events..

Encountered the same issue.

I managed to make it work using -SNMPAddress1TrapCommunityVersion Yes

using "Yes" works. I tried some values, like you did, but none of them worked.

Hope it helps

Thank you!

So basically, it's a Yes/No parameter..

I will try this out!
