Description

 

Set UDP port number.

 

IMPORTANT:

UDP Port

The default port number is 162, which is the SNMP-specified port used for

receiving traps on the NMS. Generally (such as using iMC or MIB Browser as the

 

 

NMS), you can use the default port number. To change this parameter to another

 

value, you need to make sure that the configuration is the same with that on the

 

NMS.

 

Select the security model, that is, the SNMP version. Ensure that the SNMP

Security Model

version is the same with that on the NMS; otherwise, the NMS cannot receive

 

any trap.

 

 

 

Set the authentication and privacy mode for SNMP traps when the security

 

model is selected as v3. The available security levels are: no authentication no

Security Level

privacy, authentication but no privacy, and authentication and privacy.

 

When the security model is selected as v1 or v2c, the security level is no

 

authentication no privacy, and cannot be modified.

 

 

Return to SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c configuration task list or SNMPv3 configuration task list.

Network requirements

∙As shown in a, the NMS connects to the agent, Switch, through an Ethernet.

∙The IP address of the NMS is 1.1.1.2/24.

∙The IP address of the VLAN interface on Switch is 1.1.1.1/24.

∙The NMS monitors the agent using SNMPv3. The agent reports errors or faults to the NMS.
