This is what the Southbound Gateway was designed for. Check out the docs on the Southbound Gateway. You will want to use the EventAdmin model type.

They would like to monitor nonIP devices which don't have neither IP address nor SNMP connectivity. I'll try to explain... I have a nonIP device. I create a model (for example Fanout) in Spectrum which represents that nonIP device. I enter Fanout/device name. I have a monitoring application which collects device data (for example temperature). Application is installed on a PC and PC is modeled in Spectrum. Application transforms the device data to SNMP protocol. If temperature threshold is exceeded, SNMP trap is sent to Spectrum. OID structure in trap is well organized and Spectrum can read the data from the trap (current temperature, threshold, device name). SNMP trap generates event in Spectrum and event generates an alarm. Also when the temperature returns under the threshold, SNMP trap is sent to Spectrum and the alarm is cleared. At the moment all these events and alarms are displayed under PC that application resides on. I'd like to have all my nonIP devices modeled in Spectrum as Fanouts or some other model, it doesn't matter which. My question is this... When SNMP trap (temp exceeded) is received by Spectrum, and event is generated, can this event be somehow attached to the model of my nonIP device? So when I click on Events of my nonIP device, that event is shown. Event generates alarm and my nonIP device changes colour and under Alarms I can see its alarms. By this I hope I could monitor my nonIP devices. I hope I've been clear... ;) Srdačan pozdrav / Kind regards, ___________________ Omar Izetbegović Sedam IT d.o.o.
