Password Manager Pro facilitates raising SNMP Traps and/or Syslog messages to you management systems on the occurrence of various password actions and Audit Events.
SNMP trap sending and Syslog message forwarding is a two-step process:
First you need to configure the SNMP and/or Syslog settings. This has to be done from Admin >> General >> SNMP/Syslog Settings
You need to select the events for which you wish to generate traps or syslog messages. This can be done from Audit >> Configure Audit and Resource Groups >> Password Actions.
PMP sends a SNMP v2c trap to the desired host and port. The varbinds include the resource name, account name, user name who operated, IP address from which the user operated, date and time and the reason of the operation that resulted in the event.
To specify SNMP trap settings,
Go to the "Admin" tab
Click "General >> SNMP Trap/Syslog Settings"
In the UI that opens, enter the name of the host which has to receive the traps, its port and the SNMP community
Click "Save"
A RFC-3164 compliant Syslog message will be generated and sent to the
configured host and port, using the chosen protocol (TCP or UDP). Default
facility name will be AUTH, but you can change it to any of the unassigned
facility name form the pick list. The format of the Syslog message sent
form PMP will be:
{LOGGED_IN_USERNAME:IPADDRESS} {OPERATION_TYPE} {OPERATED_TIME} {STATUS_OF_OPERATION} {PMP_SERVER_NAME} {RESOURCE_NAME:ACCOUNT_NAME:REASON}.
To specify Syslog settings,
Go to the "Admin" tab
Click "General >> SNMP Trap/Syslog Settings"
In the UI that opens, enter the name of the host which has to receive the traps, its port and the SNMP community
Click "Save"
Note 1: After carrying out the settings here, You need to select the events for which you wish to generate traps or syslog messages. This can be done from Audit >> Configure Audit and Resource Groups >> Password Actions. Only then, PMP will start sending traps/messages.
