Note Though visible in the command-line help strings, the cpu [threshold], flash insertion, flash removal,
fru-ctrl, and vtp keywords are not supported. The snmp-server enable informs global configuration
command is not supported. To enable the sending of SNMP inform notifications, use the snmp-server
enable traps global configuration command combined with the snmp-server host host-addr informs
global configuration command.
You can use the snmp-server host global configuration command to a specific host to receive the
notification types listed in Table27-5.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure the switch to send traps or informs
to a host:
Command Purpose
Step1 configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step2 snmp-server engineID remote
ip-address engineid-string Specify the engine ID for the remote host.
Step3 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. Otherwi se, you
receive an error message, and the command is not executed.
