SNMP Target Host Commands
– 793 –
To send an inform to a SNMPv3 host, complete these steps:
1.
Enable the SNMP agent ( page 787 ).
2.
Create a remote SNMPv3 user to use in the message exchange
process (
page 797 ).
3.
Create a view with the required notification messages ( page 798 ).
4.
Create a group that includes the required notify view ( page 796 ).
5.
Allow the switch to send SNMP traps; i.e., notifications ( page 790 ).
6.
Specify the target host that will receive inform messages with the
snmp-server host command as described in this section.
◆
The switch can send SNMP Version 1, 2c or 3 notifications to a host IP
address, depending on the SNMP version that the management station
supports. If the snmp-server host command does not specify the
SNMP version, the default is to send SNMP version 1 notifications.
◆ If you specify an SNMP Version 3 host, then the community string is
interpreted as an SNMP user name. The user name must first be
defined with the snmp-server user command. Otherwise, an SNMPv3
group will be automatically created by the snmp-server host
command using the name of the specified community string, and
default settings for the read, write, and notify view.
