to indicate conditions, including the following:

Details of jitter, latency, and packet loss
Low battery power is detected in the remote control
A system powers on or resets
Administrator logon is successful or unsuccessful
A call fails for a reason other than a busy line

VSX systems are compatible with SNMP version 1.
Downloading MIBs
In order to allow your SNMP management console application to resolve
SNMP traps and display human readable text descriptions for those traps, you
need to install Polycom MIBs (Management Information Base) on the
computer you intend to use as your network management station.
The MIBs are available for download from VSX Web.
To download the Polycom MIBs:
1. On a computer, open a web browser.
2. In the browser address line, enter the IP address of the system, for
example,
http://10.11.12.13
, to go to VSX Web.
3. Go to Admin Settings > Global Services > SNMP.
4. Click Download MIB and follow the onscreen instructions.
