By default, the SNMP agent function is disabled. Running any command with the parameter
snmp-agent
can enable the SNMP agent function, so this step is optional.
Step 3
Run:
snmp-agent sys-info
version
v2c
The SNMP version is set.
By default, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 is enabled.
Step 4
Run:
snmp-agent community
{
read
|
write
}
community-name
The community name is set.
l
read
must be configured in the command if the NM station administrator requires the read
permission in a specified view in some cases. For example, a low-level administrator must
read certain data.
l
write
must be configured in the command if the NM station administrator requires the read
and write permissions in a specified view in some cases. For example, a high-level
administrator must read and write certain data.
After the community name is set, if no MIB view is configured, the NM station that uses the
community name has rights to access objects in the Viewdefault view.
Step 5
Run:
snmp-agent target-host trap-paramsname
paramsname
v2c
securityname
securityname
[
binding-private-value
] [
private-netmanager
]
The parameters of the trap messages sent from device are configured.
Step 6
Run:
snmp-agent target-host trap-hostname
hostname
address
ipv4-addr
[
udp-port
udp-
portid
] [
public-net
|
vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
]
trap-paramsname
paramsname
The destination address for the alarms and error codes sent from the device is configured.
The descriptions of the command parameters are as follows:
l
The default destination UDP port number is 162. In some special cases (for example, port
mirroring is configured to prevent a well-known port from being attacked), the parameter
udp-port
can be used to specify a non-well-known UDP port number. This ensures normal
communication between the NM station and managed device.
l
If the alarms sent from the managed device to the NM station need to be transmitted over a
public network, the parameter
public-net
needs to be configured. If the alarms sent from the
managed device to the NM station need to be transmitted over a private network, the
parameter
vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
needs to be used to specify a VPN that will take
over the sending task.
Step 7
(Optional) Run:
snmp-agent sys-info
{
contact
contact
|
location
location
}
The equipment administrator's contact information or location is configured.
This step is required when the NM station administrator must know equipment administrators'
contact information and locations when the NM station manages many devices. This allows the
NM station administrator to contact the equipment administrators quickly for fault location and
rectification.
