snmp-server host
Use this command to specify the recipient of a Simple Network Management
Protocol notification operation. Use the no form to remove the specified host.
Syntax

no snmp-server host host-addr
> host-addr - Name or Internet address of the host (the targeted recipient).
(Maximum host addresses: 5 trap destination ip address entries)
> community-string - Password-like community string sent with the notification
operation. Though you can set this string using the snmp-server host com-
mand by itself, we recommend you define this string using the snmp-server
community command prior to using the snmp-server host command.

Command Usage
If you do not enter an snmp-server host command, no notifications are sent.
In order to configure the switch to send SNMP notifications, you must enter at
least one snmp-server host command. In order to enable multiple hosts, you
must issue a separate snmp-server host command for each host.
The snmp-server host command is used in conjunction with the snmp-server
enable traps command. Use the snmp-server enable traps command to
specify which SNMP notifications are sent globally. For a host to receive notifi-
cations, at least one snmp-server enable traps command and the snmp-
server host command for that host must be enabled.
However, some notification types cannot be controlled with the snmp-server
enable traps command. For example, some notification types are always
enabled.
