C H A P T E R 3 Accessing the Switch
Supported MIBs
In addition to private MIBs, the switch supports the standard MIBs
listed in Appendix A.
Configuring SNMP Settings
The following SNMP parameters can be configured on the switch:
• Authorized trap receivers — An authorized trap receiver can be
one or more network management stations on your network. The
switch sends SNMP traps to all trap receivers. You can have a
maximum of 16 trap receivers configured for each switch. Entries
in this list can be created, modified, and deleted using the
RMON2 trapDestTable MIB variable, as described in RFC 2021.
• SNMP read access — The ability to read SNMP information can
be restricted through the use of an access profile. An access
profile permits or denies a named list of IP addresses and subnet
masks.
To configure SNMP read access to use an access profile, use the
command:
config snmp access-profile readonly
[<access_profile> | none]
Use the
none
option to remove a previously configured access
profile.
• SNMP read/write access — The ability to read and write SNMP
information can be restricted through the use of an access profile.
An access profile permits or denies a named list of IP addresses
and subnet masks.
To configure SNMP read/write access to use an access profile,
use the command:
config snmp access-profile readwrite
[<access_profile> | none]
Use the
none
option to remove a previously configured access-
profile.
• Community strings — The community strings allow a simple
method of authentication between the switch and the remote
Network Manager. There are two types of community strings on
the switch. Read community strings provide read-only access to
the switch. The default read-only community string is
public .
Read-write community strings provide read and write access to
