Setting Up an SNMP Community String, Traps and V3 Values

7.Enter map-classframe-relay<name> to designate this map-class and acquire Map-Class mode.

8.Enter frame-relay cir out <bits> to set the outgoing CIR (the default is 56000 bps). Refer to the XSR User’s Guide for more details.

9.Enter frame-relay bc out <bits> to set the Burst size for this map-class. Refer to the XSR User’s Manual for further directions.

10.Enter frame-relay be out <rate> to set the excess Burst site for this map-class. Refer to the XSR User’s Manual for more directions.

11.Enter interface serial <slot # card # port # subinterface#> <point> of the serial NIM card to acquire Sub-interface mode, select the point-to-point connection type and begin configuring this sub-interface.

12.Enter no shutdown to enable the sub-interface.

13.Enter ip address <xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx> <yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy> where x is the IP address and y is the subnet mask of this sub-interface.

14.Enter frame-relayinterface-dlci<16 - 1007> to assign a Data-link Connection Identifier (DLCI) to this sub-interface. DLCIs are provisioned by your service provider.

15.Enter class <name> to designate the map-class which will be assigned to the earlier specified DLCI. The class name often refers to the speed of the connection such as SlowLink for a 64000 bps link.

16.Repeat the previous steps on the Branch XSR.

Remember to save your configuration after all edits. Refer to the XSR User’s Guide for more information.

Setting Up an SNMP Community String, Traps and V3 Values

1.Enter snmp-server community <string> <ro rw> <ACL #> to create an SNMP community with an optional ACL on the XSR. Although SNMP is disabled by default, entering any SNMP configuration command except snmp-server disable will enable the SNMP server.

You can choose either Read Only or Read/Write privileges and can create read-only or read- write community strings. Also, community-based write access is available for the ct-downloadMIB only. For write access to other MIBs, use SNMPv3. Also, a RW community is unnecessary for SNMPv3.

Note: Only standard ACLs can be applied to SNMP configuration commands.

2.Enter snmp-server host <IP address> traps <community-string[snmp]> to specify where traps are sent.

3.Enter snmp-server location <location-string> to specify where the SNMP device is sited.

4.Enter snmp-server enable traps snmp authentication to define which traps are sent.

5.Optional . For SNMPv3, enter snmp-server group <name> v3 {auth nonauth priv} read <name> write <name> to add a group.
