Cisco Systems SCE 2000 4/8xFE manual Configuring SNMP

Chapter 5 Connecting the Management Interfaces and Performing Initial System Configuration

Initial System Configuration

Enter IP access-class [0]: 1

Enter Telnet access-class [0]: 2

EXAMPLE 2:

This example skips the first section of the dialog (creating/modifying), and proceeds directly to assign existing ACLs.

Would you like to enter the Access lists configuration menu? [no]: y Would you like to create new Access lists or modify existing lists? [no]: Enter IP access-class [0]: 10

Enter Telnet access-class [0]: 22

Step 8: Configuring SNMP

Managing the SCE 2000 is possible also via a Network Management System (NMS) that supports SNMP. By default, SNMP is disabled on the SCE 2000.

To enable SNMP management you must configure the following basic SNMP parameters:

•SNMP traps status and managers.

•Community strings (where an SNMP community string is a text string that acts like a password to permit access to the SNMP agent on the SCE 2000).

To configure SNMP parameters, complete the following steps:

Step 1 Enter the SNMP configuration menu.

Would you like to enter the SNMP configuration menu? [no]: y

Type y and press Enter.

The SNMP configuration dialog begins.

Step 2 Enable SNMP management.

Type y and press Enter.

Enable SNMP management? [no]: y

If you choose to disable SNMP management, skip the rest of this section and go to Step 9: Configuring the Topology-Dependent Parameters (on page 5-19). The rest of the dialog is not presented, as it is irrelevant when SNMP management is disabled.

Step 3 Type the SNMP GET community name and press Enter.

The SNMP agent that resides inside the SCE 2000 will respond only to GET requests that use this community string.

Enter SNMP GET community name:

Note that there is no default for this parameter.

Step 4 Assign an access list to restrict the SNMP management stations that may use this GET community.

Type a number (1 through 99) or type “0” to permit access to all IP addresses, and press Enter.

Enter Access list number allowing access with this community string, use ‘0’ to allow all:
