Configuring SNMP Notifications
A trap manager is a management station that receives and processes traps. Traps are system alerts that
the switch generates when certain events occur. By default, no trap manager is defined, and no traps are
sent. Switches can have an unlimited number of trap managers.
Step 4
snmp-server user username groupname
{remote host [udp-port port]} {v1 [access
access-list] | v2c [access access-list] | v3
[encrypted] [access access-list] [auth
{md5 | sha} auth-password]} [priv {des |
3des | aes {128 | 192 | 256}}
priv-password]
Add a new user for an SNMP group.
•
The username is the name of the user on the host that connects to
the agent.
•
The groupname is the name of the group to which the user is
associated.
•
Enter remote to specify a remote SNMP entity to which the user
belongs and the hostname or IP address of that entity with the
optional UDP port number. The default is 162.
•
Enter the SNMP version number (v1, v2c, or v3). If you enter v3,
you have these additional options:
–
encrypted specifies that the password appears in encrypted
format. This keyword is available only when the v3 keyword
is specified.
–
auth is an authentication level setting session that can be
either the HMAC-MD5-96 (md5) or the HMAC-SHA-96
(sha) authentication level and requires a password string
auth-password (not to exceed 64 characters).
•
If you enter v3 and the switch is running the cryptographic
software image, you can also configure a private (priv)
encryption algorithm and password string priv-password (not to
exceed 64 characters).
–
priv specifies the User-based Security Model (USM).
–
des specifies the use of the 56-bit DES algorithm.
–
3des specifies the use of the 168-bit DES algorithm.
–
aes specifies the use of the DES algorithm. You must select
either 128-bit, 192-bit, or 256-bit encryption.
•
(Optional) Enter access access-list with a string (not to exceed 64
characters) that is the name of the access list.
Step 5
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
show running-config
Verify your entries.
Note
To display SNMPv3 information about auth | noauth | priv
mode configuration, you must enter the show snmp user
privileged EXEC command.
Step 7
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
