Configuring SNMP Parameters and Traps

Page 13-6

e. The following prompt displays:

Special Access? (no): yes

Select whether or not this Network Management Station has special access. If you enter

yes

, this

NMS

will have administrative privileges such as modifying, deleting, or adding to

other trap entries as well as its own. Without special access, an

NMS

can only update its

own entry. If you choose the default,

no

, simply press

<Enter>

at the prompt.

Save your configuration by typing

save

and then

<Enter>

.

f. After you have saved your configuration, the prompt re-displays. The above entries will

create an

NMS

number 8 in the list. Traps will be sent to the

IP

address specified for that

NMS

station (provided the

NMS

state is

on

and unicast traps are

enabled

).

To view your new

SNMP

configuration, enter the

snmpc

command. The following is a

sample display of the output from the

snmpc

command after the above sample configura-

tion:

SNMP current configuration:

1)

Process SNMP Packets - enabled

2)

Utilization Threshold

- 60%

3)

Set Community Name

- admin

4)

Get Community Name

- public

5)

Trap Community Name - trap1

6)

Broadcast Traps

- disabled

7)

1 Unicast Traps

- enabled

8) NMS IP address

- 123.12.1.1

/162 --bffffffff:ffffffff (on) (SA)

-- ffffffff:fffffffff

(save/quit/cancel)

:

The values that appear to the immediate right of the

NMS IP

address are: the

UDP

destina-

tion port number (

162

), the trap bit masks (

ffffffff:bfffffff

), the functional state of the

NMS

(

on

), and the special access (

SA

) status (this does not appear if you selected

no

for special

access in step above).

To add network management stations to this current

SNMP

configuration, enter the next

highest entry number from the last defined

NMS

. For example, if you wanted to add

another

NMS

to the above sample configuration, you would enter the following:

9=123.22.2.2
