SNMP Trap Manager is the management station to which the switch will send any SNMP traps (alerts). The types of traps the switch can send are authentication traps, linkUp/linkDown traps, among others. From the Management Console, up to 4 Trap management stations can be defined.

If no trap managers are defined, the switch will not send any traps.

Enter First Trap Manager server name or IP address:

Current setting ===>

New setting ===> 63.78.39.84

11.Notice that that IP address is the previously configured SNMP management station. Once this has been completed, you have successfully enabled SNMP on a Catalyst 1900 switch.
