Sending SNMP traps from a 2810-24G

[Keflumper]

I've been poking around the CLI of the 2810-24G in order to set a trap receiver. Going through the documentation doesn't provide me with a simple way to set the receiver (too much nonsense about params, tagvalues, etc.). I'd like to simply send all traps to a specific IP. Can someone tell me the command that will do this?

if x.x.x.x is the ip to which you would like to send the traps, the simple way to do is:

ProCurve Switch 2810-24G(config)#snmp-server host x.x.x.x communityStr

[ communityStr = the community string ]

This will send all "well-known" traps to x.x.x.x. Additionally if you would like to receive Event Log messages too as traps, then to the above command, choose one of
([])

for eg:
ProCurve Switch 2810-24G(config)#snmp-server host x.x.x.x communityStr all

which would indicate to the switch to send "all" event log messages as well to x.x.x.x
