Chapter 30 Configuring SNMP
Configuring SNMP
The snmp-server host command specifies which hosts receive the notifications. The snmp-server
enable trap command globally enables the mechanism for the specified notification (for traps and
informs). To enable a host to receive an inform, you must configure an snmp-server host informs
command for the host and globally enable informs by using the snmp-server enable traps command.
To remove the specified host from receiving traps, use the no snmp-server host host global
configuration command. The no snmp-server host command with no keywords disables traps, but not
informs, to the host. To disable informs, use the no snmp-server host informs globa l configuration
command. To disable a specific trap type, use the no snmp-server enable traps notification-types global
configuration command.
Setting the CPU Threshold Notification Types and Values
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to set the CPU threshold notification types and
values:
Step 11 show running-config Verify your entries.
Note To display SNMPv3 information about auth | noauth | priv mode
configuration, you must enter the show snmp user privileged
EXEC command.
Step 12 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 process cpu threshold type {total | process
| interrupt} rising percentage interval
seconds [falling fall-percentage interval
seconds]
Set the CPU threshold notification types and values:
• total—set the notification type to total CPU utilization.
• process—set the notification type to CPU process utilization.
• interrupt—set the notification type to CPU interrupt utilization.
• rising percentage—the percentage (1 to 100) of CPU resources
that, when exceeded for the configured interval, sends a CPU
threshold notification.
• interval seconds—the duration of the CPU threshold violation in
seconds (5 to 86400) that, when met, sends a CPU threshold
notification.
• falling fall-percentage—the percentage (1 to 100) of CPU
resources that, when usage falls below this level for the
configured interval, sends a CPU threshold notification.
This value must be equal to or less than the rising percentage
value. If not specified, the falling fall-percentage value is the
same as the rising percentage value.
Step 3 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4 show running-config Verify your entries.
Step 5 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
