Description

This command displays the following SNMP information:

❑SNMP status - The status will be enabled or disabled. If enabled, you can manage the switch with an SNMP application program from a remote management station. If disabled, you cannot remotely manage the switch using SNMP. The default for SNMP is disabled. To enable SNMP, refer ENABLE SNMP on page 92. To disable SNMP, refer to DISABLE SNMP on page 89.

❑Authentication failure traps - This status will be enabled or disabled. If enabled, the switch sends out authentication failure traps to trap receivers. If disabled, the switch will not send out authentication failure traps, but will send out other system traps. The switch sends an authentication failure trap whenever a SNMP management station attempts to access the switch using an incorrect or invalid community string, or the management station’s IP address has not been added to a community string that has a closed access status. The default setting is enabled.

To enable authentication failure traps, refer to ENABLE SNMP AUTHENTICATETRAP on page 93. To disable the sending of this trap, see DISABLE SNMP AUTHENTICATETRAP on page 90. To add IP addresses of management stations to receive the trap, refer to the ADD SNMP COMMUNITY on page 81.

❑SNMP community strings - The switch comes with the two default community strings public, which has read access, and private, which has read and write access. To add new community strings, see CREATE SNMP COMMUNITY on page 83. To delete community strings, refer to DESTROY SNMP COMMUNITY on page 88.
