no snmp-server enable traps

Enable the switch to send Trap message. This

command is used for SNMP v1/v2/v3.

snmp-server host { <ipv4-addr> |

<ipv6-addr> } {v1 | v2c | {v3 {noauthnopriv

| authnopriv | authpriv}}} <user-string>

no snmp-server host { <ipv4-addr> |

<ipv6-addr> } {v1 | v2c | {v3 {noauthnopriv

| authnopriv | authpriv}}} <user-string>

Set the host IPv4/IPv6 address which is used to

receive SNMP Trap information. For SNMP v1/v2,

this command also configures Trap community

string; for SNMP v3, this command also configures

Trap user name and security level. The “no” form of

this command cancels this IPv4 or IPv6 address.

4.4.5 Typical SNMP Configuration Examples

The IP address of the NMS is 1.1.1.5; the IP address of the switch (Agent) is 1.1.1.9.

Scenario 1: The NMS network administrative software uses SNMP protocol to obtain data from the switch.

The configuration on the switch is listed below:

Switch(config)#snmp-server enable

Switch(config)#snmp-server community rw private

Switch(config)#snmp-server community ro public

Switch(config)#snmp-server securityip 1.1.1.5

The NMS can use private as the community string to access the switch with read-write permission, or use

public as the community string to access the switch with read-only permission.

Scenario 2: NMS will receive Trap messages from the switch (Note: NMS may have community string

verification for the Trap messages. In this scenario, the NMS uses a Trap verification community string of

usertrap).

The configuration on the switch is listed below:

Switch(config)#snmp-server enable

Switch(config)#snmp-server host 1.1.1.5 v1 usertrap

Switch(config)#snmp-server enable traps
