Chapter 35 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 global configuration
command. To disable a specific trap type, use the no snmp-server enable traps notification-types global
configuration command.
Step 6 snmp-server enable traps
notification-types Enable the switch to send traps or informs and specify the type of
notifications to be sent. For a list of notification types, see Table 35-5 on
page 35-12, or enter snmp-server enable traps ?
To enable multiple types of traps, you must enter a separate snmp-server
enable traps command for each trap type.
Note When you configure a trap by using the notification type
port-security, configure the port security trap first, and then
configure the port security trap rate:
snmp-server enable traps port-security
snmp-server enable traps port-security trap-rate rate
Step 7 snmp-server trap-source interface-id (Optional) Specify the source interface, which provides the IP address for
the trap message. This command also sets the source IP address for
informs.
Step 8 snmp-server queue-length length (Optional) Establish the message queue length for each trap host. The
range is 1 to 1000; the default is 10.
Step 9 snmp-server trap-timeout seconds (Optional) Define how often to resend trap messages. The range is 1 to
1000; the default is 30 seconds.
Step 10 end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
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 EXEC
command.
Step 12 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
