Log in to the console server’s command line shell as root or an admin user.

config set config.system.snmp.address2=w.x.y.z .. (replacing w.x.y.z with the IP address or DNS name).

To set the Manager Trap Port field:

config set config.system.snmp.trapport2=162 .. (replacing 162 with the TCP/UDP port number)

To set the Version field:

config set config.system.snmp.version2=1 or config set config.system.snmp.version2=2c or

config set config.system.snmp.version2=3

To set the Community field (SNMP version 1 and 2c only):
