# Step 3. Enable SNMP Notification for Alarms

To receive SNMP traps when an alarm is triggered, you must set SNMP notification as a response action for every alarm manually.

To configure SNMP traps for an alarm:

1. Open Veeam ONE Client.

   For details, see [Accessing Veeam ONE Components](access.md).

2. At the bottom of the inventory pane, click **Alarm Management**.
3. To open the **Alarm Settings** window for the necessary alarm, do either of the following:

   - Double click the necessary alarm in the list.
   - Right-click the alarm and choose **Edit** from the shortcut menu.
   - Select the alarm in the list and click **Edit** in the **Actions** pane on the right.

4. In the **Alarm Settings** window, open the **Notifications** tab.
5. On the **Notifications** tab, click **Add**.
6. From the **Action** list, select **Send SNMP trap**.
7. From the **Condition** list, choose the severity of alarms about which recipients must be notified:

   - **Any state** — an SNMP trap will be sent every time when an alarm status changes to *Error*, *Warning*, *Info* or *Resolved*.
   - **Errors and warnings** — an SNMP trap will be sent every time when an alarm status changes to *Error* or *Warning*.
   - **Resolved** — an SNMP trap will be sent every time when an alarm status changes to *Resolved*.
   - **Errors only** — an SNMP trap will be sent every time when an alarm status changes to *Error*.

8. Click **Save**.
