User Guidelines

If a trap and inform are defined on the same target, and an inform was sent, the trap is not sent.

An inform request is held in memory until a response is received or the request times out. An inform can be resent or retried several times, but traps are sent only once. Network traffic is increased with retries. Therefore, traps and informs require a trade-off between reliability and resources. Inform requests should be used, if it is important that the SNMP manager receives every notification. If traffic on the network or memory in the switch is a concern and notification is not required, traps should be used.

To define an SNMP recipient on the out-of-band port, use the out-of-band IP address format — oob/ip-address. Use only unicast IP addresses.

Example

The following example enables SNMP traps for host 10.1.1.1 with community string "management" using SNMPv2. Console (config)# snmp-server host 10.1.1.1 management 2
