Command Usage
• If you do not enter an snmp-server enable traps command, no notifications controlled by this
command are sent. In order to configure this device to send SNMP notifications, you must
enter at least one snmp-server enable traps command. If you enter the command with no
keywords, both authentication and link-up-down notifications are enabled. If you enter the
command with a keyword, only the notification type related to that keyword is enabled.
• The snmp-server enable traps command is used in conjunction with the snmp-server host
command. Use the snmp-server host command to specify which host or hosts receive SNMP
notifications. In order to send notifications, you must configure at least one snmp-server host
command.
• The authentication, link-up, and link-down traps are legacy notifications, and therefore when
used for SNMP Version 3 hosts, they must be enabled in conjunction with the corresponding
entries in the Notify View assigned by the
snmp-server group command.
Example
Console(config)#snmp-server enable traps link-up-down
