Chapter23 Configuring SNMP Configuring SNMP
Some notification types cannot be controlled with the snmp-server enab le globa l configuration
command, for example, tty and udp-port. These notification types are always enabled. You ca n u se th e
snmp-server host global configuration command to a specific host to receive the notification types
listed in Table23-4.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch to send traps or informs
to a host:
hsrp Generates a trap for Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) changes.
mac-notification Generates a trap for MAC address notifications.
rtr Generates a trap for the SNMP Response Time Reporter (RTR).
snmp Generates a trap for SNMP-type notifications.
syslog Generates a trap for SNMP syslog notifications.
tty Sends Cisco enterprise-specific notifications when a Transmission Control
Protocol (TCP) connection closes.
udp-port Sends notification of the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port num ber of the
host.
vlan-membership Generates a trap for SNMP VLAN membership changes.
vtp Generates a trap for VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) changes.

Configure an SNMP user to be associated with the remote host created in
Step 2.
Note You cannot configure a remote user for an address without first
configuring the engine ID for the remote host. If you try to
configure the user before configuring the remote engine ID, you
receive an error message, and the command is not executed.
