Example: Configuring SNMP TRAP Messages

The following example shows how to create the community name server. In this example, only NMS 195.1.1.2 can access community name SERVER. The access server sends TRAP messages to this NMS.

Local> CHANGE SNMP COMMUNITY "SERVER" ADDRESS 195.1.1.2

Local> CHANGE SNMP COMMUNITY "SERVER" SET ENABLED

Local> CHANGE SNMP COMMUNITY "SERVER" TRAP ENABLED

Local> CHANGE SNMP AUTHENTICATION ENABLED

Local> CHANGE SNMP ENABLED

Note

TRAPS cannot be enabled for communities with the IP address ANY.
