Command Usage
• An SNMP engine is an independent SNMP agent that resides on this switch.
This engine protects against message replay, delay, and redirection. The
engine ID is also used in combination with user passwords to generate the
security keys for authenticating and encrypting SNMPv3 packets.
• Trailing zeroes need not be entered to uniquely specify a engine ID. In other
words, the value “1234” is equivalent to “1234” followed by 22 zeroes.
• If the local engineID is deleted or changed, all SNMP users will be cleared.
You will need to reconfigure all existing users (page 4-148).

Console(config)#snmp-server enable traps link-up-down
