ADD SNMP COMMUNITY

Syntax

add snmp community="

community

" [traphost=

ipaddress

]

[manager=

ipaddress

]

Parameters

community

Specifies an existing SNMP community string on the

switch. This parameter is case sensitive. The name
must be enclosed in double quotes if it contains a
space or special character such as an exclamation
point. Otherwise, the quotes are optional.

traphost

Specifies the IP address of a trap receiver.

manager

Specifies the IP address of a management station to

have SNMP access to the switch using the
community string.

Description

This command adds the IP address of a trap receiver or a management
station to an existing community string.

The TRAPHOST parameter specifies a trap receiver for the SNMP
community string. This is the IP address of a device to which traps
generated by the switch are sent. A community string can have up to eight
IP addresses of trap receivers, but only one can be added at a time with
this command.

The MANAGER parameter specifies a management station to be allowed
SNMP management access to the switch using the community string. This
parameter applies only to community strings with a closed status. A
community string can have up to eight IP addresses of management
stations, but only one can be added at a time with this command.

To create a new community string, refer to “CREATE SNMP
COMMUNITY” on page 128. To view the
current community strings, refer
to “SHOW SNMP” on page 142.

Examples

The following command permits access by a management station with the
IP address 149.212.11.22 to the switch through the “private” community
string:

add snmp community=private manager=149.212.11.22
