Using Logs and Reports : Configuring SNMP trap receivers for DDoS attack reporting
 
Configuring SNMP trap receivers for DDoS attack reporting
You configure SNMP trap receivers for FortiDDoS attack events separately from the system traps. This enables you to have separate configurations for each SPP, if necessary. You can configure multiple SNMP trap receivers—multiple managers that receive traps from the same SPP, or managers that receive traps from multiple SPPs.
Before you begin:
• You must have Read-Write permission for Log & Report settings.
To configure SNMP trap receivers:
1. Go to Log & Report > Log Configuration > SNMP Trap Receivers.
2. Click Add to display the configuration editor.
3. Complete the configuration as described in Table 93.
4. Save the configuration.
