Configuring a notification target

A notification target is a remote device to which WSS Software sends SNMP notifications. You can configure the WSS
Software SNMP engine to send confirmed notifications (informs) or unconfirmed notifications (traps). Some of the
command options differ depending on the SNMP version and the type of notification you specify. You can configure up
to 10 notification targets.
To configure a notification target for informs from SNMPv3, use the following command:
set snmp notify target target-num ip-addr[:udp-port-number]
usm inform user username
snmp-engine-id {ip | hex hex-string}
[profile profile-name]
[security {unsecured | authenticated | encrypted}]
[retries num]
[timeout num]
To configure a notification target for traps from SNMPv3, use the following command:
set snmp notify target target-num ip-addr[:udp-port-number]
usm trap user username
[profile profile-name]
[security {unsecured | authenticated | encrypted}]
To configure a notification target for informs from SNMPv2c, use the following command:
set snmp notify target target-num ip-addr[:udp-port-number]
v2c community-string inform
[profile profile-name]
[retries num]
[timeout num]
To configure a notification target for traps from SNMPv2c, use the following command:
set snmp notify target target-num ip-addr[:udp-port-number]
v2c community-string trap
[profile profile-name]
To configure a notification target for traps from SNMPv1, use the following command:
set snmp notify target target-num ip-addr[:udp-port-number]
v1 community-string
[profile profile-name]
To clear a notification target, use the following command:
clear snmp notify target target-num
The target-num is an ID for the target. This ID is local to the WSS and does not need to correspond to a value on the
target itself. You can specify a number from 1 to 10.
The ip-addr[:udp-port-number] is the IP address of the server. You also can specify the UDP port number to send notifi-
cations to. The default is 162.
Use v1, v2c, or usm to specify the SNMP version.
