snmpConfig --help
Description Use this command to manage the configuration of the SNMP agent in the switch. The configuration
includes SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 configuration, access control list (ACL), MIB capability, system
group, and security level settings. The command supports set, reset to default, and display
operations.
The SNMP Agent configuration interface is interactive for all parameters except mibCapability,
which can be configured both interactively and with command-line options on platforms running
Fabric OS v6.4.0 and later. The enhanced command-line interface supports enabling or disabling a
single MIB or all MIBs, configuring a single trap only, and managing traps in excess of 32.
In Fabric OS v6.3.0 and later, the SNMPv3 configuration supports sending inform requests as an
alternative to trap requests. Traps are unreliable because the receiver does not send any
acknowledgment when it receives a trap. The sender cannot determine if the trap was received.
However, an SNMP manager that receives an inform request acknowledges the message with an
SNMP response protocol data unit (PDU). If the manager does not receive an inform request, it
does not send a response. If the sender never receives a response, the inform request can be sent
again. Thus, informs are more likely to reach their intended destination.
All values successfully changed by this command take effect immediately and are persistent across
power cycles and reboots.
Note The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may
be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command
Availability" for details.
Informs are currently not supported for IPv6 addresses.
