Fix Recommendation

These are two of the three possible methods of notification that can be configured.

The following command enables SNMP traps:

snmp-server enable traps

Note: This will enable sending all traps.

The following command configures the SNMPv3 trap receiver (target):

snmp-server host trap-receiver version v3

Up to 16 trap receivers can be configured.

For security, SNMP and SNMP trap are disabled on all data interfaces. Use the enable-management command to enable SNMP on the management interface.

The following command configures log email settings:
logging email buffer number [num] time [minutes]
By default, emailing of log messages is disabled. If this is enabled, the buffer options have the following default values: number – 50, time – 10.

The following command configures an email filter:
logging email filter filter-num conditions operators [trigger]
Since there are alerts that require immediate action, use the "trigger" option. This immediately sends the messages rather than buffering them.

The following command specifies the email address to which to email the log messages:
logging email-address [address]
More than one email address can be set.
