Configuring SNMP
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch to send traps or informs
to a host:
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 snmp-server engineID remote
ip-address engineid-string Specify the engine ID for the remote host.
Step 3 snmp-server user username
groupname {remote host [udp-port
port]} {v1 [access access-list] | v2c
[access access-list] | v3 [encrypted]
[access access-list] [auth {md5 | sha}
auth-password]}
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. Otherwise, you
receive an error message, and the command is not executed.
Step 4 snmp-server group groupname {v1 |
v2c | v3 {auth | noauth | priv}} [read
readview] [write writeview] [notify
notifyview] [access access-list]
Configure an SNMP group.
Step 5 snmp-server host host-addr
[informs | traps] [version {1 | 2c | 3
{auth | noauth | priv}}]
community-string [notification-type]
Specify the recipient of an SNMP trap operation.
For host-addr, specify the name or Internet address of the host (the
targeted recipient).
(Optional) Enter informs to send SNMP informs to the host.
(Optional) Enter traps (the default) to send SNMP traps to the host.
(Optional) Specify the SNMP version (1, 2c, or 3). SNMPv1 does
not support informs.
(Optional) For Version 3, select authentication level auth, noauth, or
priv.
For community-string, when version 1 or version 2c is specified,
enter the password-like community string sent with the notification
operation. When version 3 is specified, enter the SNMPv3 username.
Note The @ symbol is used for delimiting the context information.
Avoid using the @ symbol as part of the SNMP community string
when configuring this command.
(Optional) For notification-type, use the keywords listed in
Table 35-5 on page 35-12. If no type is specified, all notifications are
sent.
