The SLC unit sends the traps to the host identified in the NMS field.
NMS #1 (or #2) When SNMP is enabled, an NMS (Network Management System) acts as a central
server, requesting and receiving SNMP-type information from any computer using
SNMP. The NMS can request information from the SLC 8000 advanced console
manager and receive traps from the SLC unit. Enter the IP address of the NMS server.
