2 Initial Configuration

To configure a community string, complete the following steps:

1.From the Privileged Exec level global configuration mode prompt, type “snmp-server community string mode,” where “string” is the community access string and “mode” is rw (read/write) or ro (read only). Press <Enter>. (Note that the default mode is read only.)

2.To remove an existing string, simply type “no snmp-server community string,” where “string” is the community access string to remove. Press <Enter>.

Console(config)#snmp-server community admin rw

Console(config)#snmp-server community private

Console(config)#

Trap Receivers

You can also specify SNMP stations that are to receive traps from the switch.

To configure a trap receiver, complete the following steps:

1.From the Privileged Exec level global configuration mode prompt, type “snmp-server host host-addresscommunity-string,” where “host-address” is the IP address for the trap receiver and “community-string” is the string associated with that host. Press <Enter>.

2.In order to configure the switch to send SNMP least one snmp-server enable traps command. type,” where “type” is either authentication or

notifications, you must enter at Type “snmp-server enable traps link-up-down. Press <Enter>.

Console(config)#snmp-server enable traps link-up-down Console(config)#
