Command Usage
• If you do not enter an snmp-server host command, no notifications are sent.
In order to configure the switch to send SNMP notifications , you must enter at
least one snmp-server host command. In order to enable multiple hosts, you
must issue a separate snmp-server host command for each host.
•The snmp-server host command is used in conjunction with the
snmp-server enable traps command. Use the snmp-server enable traps
command to specify which SNMP notifications are sent globally. For a host to
receive notifications, at least one snmp-server enable traps command and
the snmp-server host command for that host must be enabled.
• Some notification types cannot be controlled with the snmp-server enable
traps command. For example, some notification types are always enabled.
