Chapter 8 Configuring SNMP
Configuring SNMP Notifications
•
community-string_username
—SNMP community string or username with
the notification operation. Enter an unquoted text string with no space and a
maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters.
•
informs
—Sends SNMP inform requests to the identified host, which allows
for manager-to-manager communication. Inform requests can be useful when
the need arises for more than one NMS in the network.
•
traps
—Sends SNMP traps to the identified host. A trap is the method for an
agent to tell the NMS that a problem has occurred. The trap originates from
the agent and is sent to the trap destination, as configured within the agent
itself. Typically, the trap destination is the IP address of the NMS.
•
version
—Specifies the version of SNMP used to send the traps. SNMPv3 is
the most secure model because it allows packet encryption with the
priv
keyword.
•
1
—Specifies SNMPv1. This option is not available for use with SNMP
inform requests. SNMPv1 has one optional keyword (
udp-port)
that
specifies the UDP port of the host to use. The default is 162.
•
2c
—Specifies SNMPv2C. SNMPv2C has one optional keyword (
udp-port)
that specifies the UDP port of the host to use. The default is 162.
•
3
—Specifies SNMPv3. SNMPv3 has three optional keywords (
auth
,
no
auth
, or
priv
).
•
auth
—(Optional) Enables Message Digest 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash
Algorithm (SHA) packet authentication.
•
noauth
—(Optional) Specifies the noAuthNoPriv security level.
•
priv
—(Optional) Enables Data Encryption Standard (DES) packet
encryption (privacy).
For example, to specify the recipient of an SNMP notification, enter:
host1/Admin(config)#
snmp-server host 192.168.1.1 traps version 2c
SNMP_Community1 udp-port 500
To remove the specified host, use the
no
form of the command. For example:
host1/Admin(config)#
no snmp-server host 192.168.1.1 traps version 2c
SNMP_Community1 udp-port 500
