Configuring for Network Management Applications
Using SNMP Tools To Manage the Switch
To enable or disable notification/traps for network security failures and other
security events, enter the
snmp-server enable traps command.
Syntax: [no] snmp-server enable traps [snmp-auth | password-change-mgr | login­
failure-mgr | port-security | auth-server-fail]
Enables or disables sending one of the following types of
security notification to configured trap receivers:
•
snmp-auth
sends a trap for a failed authentication attempt via SNMP.
•
password-change-mgr
sends a trap when a manager password is
reset.
•
login-failure-mgr
sends a trap for a failed login with a manager
password.
•
port-security
sends a trap for a failed authentication attempt through
a web, MAC, or 801.X authentication session.
•
auth-server-fail
sends a trap if the connection with a RADIUS or
authentication server fails.
To determine the specific cause of a security event, check the event log in the
console interface to see why a trap was sent. For more information, refer to
“Using the Event Log for Troubleshooting Switch Problems” on page C-24.
To display the current configuration for network security notifications, enter
the
show snmp-server traps
command. Note that command output is a subset
of the information displayed with the
show snmp-server
command in Figure 13­
