Nortel Networks 8600 SNMP Settings, ERS-86065# config sys set snmp ?, truefalse, targetaddress

Technical Configuration Guide for SNMP v2.0 December 2006

4. SNMP Settings

To configure the SNMP settings, enter the following command:

•ERS-8606:5#config sys set snmp ?

Sub-Context: Current Context:

force-iphdr-sender <truefalse> force-trap-sender <truefalse> info

sender-ip <ipaddr> <ipaddr> Where:

config sys set snmp
followed by:
force-iphdr-sender	If set to true, the configured source address is sent in the
<truefalse>	IP header of the notification message as the source
	address.
force-trap-sender	If set to true, the configured source address is sent in the
<truefalse>	notification message as the sender network.
info	Displays the current SNMP settings.
sender-ip	Configures a source IP address which is set in the
<target_address>	notification sent to the target. The source IP add`ress
<source_address>	should be a circuitless IP address.

For example, assume we have an ERS 8600 switch with software release 4.1 and we wish to send SNMPv2 traps using the circuitless IP address. For this example, let’s assume the trap receiver IP address is 10.1.50.10, the circuitless IP address is 1.1.1.1/32, and OSPF is used as the IGP.

1.First, add the circuitless IP address and enable OSPF

•ERS-8606:5#config ip circuitless-ip-int 1 create 1.1.1.1/32

•ERS-8606:5#config ip circuitless-ip-int 1 ospf enable

2.Add the SNMP trap target address using the default trap notification “trapTag”

•ERS-8606:5#config snmp-v3 target-addr create TAddr1 10.1.50.10:162 TparamV2 timeout 1500 retry 3 taglist trapTag mask 0xff:ff:00:00:00:00 mms 484

3.Finally, set the SNMP sender IP address using the CLIP address

•ERS-8606:5#

•ERS-8606:5#

•ERS-8606:5#

config sys set snmp sender-ip 10.1.50.10 1.1.1.1 config sys set snmp force-iphdr-sender true config sys set snmp force-trap-sender true

Also, you can enable authentication traps by entering the following command:

•ERS-8606:5#config sys set sendAuthenticationTrap true
