Configuring SNMP on a Cisco Router

The following instructions describe how to configure SNMP on a Cisco router
running IOS.

Care must always be taken when editing router configuration. If in doubt, consult
your network engineer.

1. Telnet to the router:

C:\> telnet <router address>
User Access Verification

Password:<password>


2. Enter enable mode (note that the password may be different to the login

password):

Router>enable
Password:<password>


3. Start configuring from the keyboard:

Router#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

4. Add a read only community “public”:

Router(config)#snmp-server community public RO


5. Enable standard SNMP traps:

Router(config)#snmp-server enable traps snmp


6. Add NetWatch as a trap receiver (to send traps with the community “public”):

Router(config)#snmp-server host <address of NetWatch> public


7. Quit config mode:

Router(config)#<CTRL-Z>


8. Store the configuration to flash:

Router(config)#wr mem
