Configuring SNMP
Configuring SNMP
SNMP is an application-layer protocol that allows an SNMP manager, such an NMS (network
management system), and an SNMP agent on the managed device to communicate. You can configure
SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3 on the CiscoONS 15530.
The NME (network management Ethernet) ports on the active processor card, named fastethernet 0,
provide multiple simultaneous SNMP network management sessions to the current active processor . The
Cisco ONS15530 can be fully managed by sending SNMP messages to the active processor IP address.
If a processor switchover occurs, you can access the other pr ocessor c ard after it reache s the acti v e state .
For more information on processor card redundancy, see the About CPU Switch Module Redundancy
section on page 3-8.
Note The standby processor card does not respond to SNMP messages.
For detailed instructions on configuring SNMP and enabling SNMP trap notifications, refer to the
Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide and the Cisco IOS Configuration
Fundamentals Command Reference publication.
