Configuring SNMP Notifications
Use these commands to configure:
•
The destinations that will receive SNMP notifications (hosts)
•
Which types of notifications will be sent (traps)
Notifications are unsolicited messages that are generated by the SNMP agent that resides inside the
Cisco SCE platform when an event occurs. When the Network Management System receives the
notification message, it can take suitable actions, such as logging the occurrence or ignoring the signal.
By default, the Cisco SCE platform is not configured to send any SNMP notifications. You must define
the Network Management System to which the Cisco SCE platform should send notifications. (See the
table below, Configurable Notifications, for a list of configurable notifications). Whenever one of the
events that trigger notifications occurs in the Cisco SCE platform, an SNMP notification is sent from the
Cisco SCE platform to the list of IP addresses that you define.
The Cisco SCE platform supports two general categories of notifications:
•
Standard SNMP notifications - As defined in RFC1157 and using the conventions defined in
RFC1215.
•
Proprietary service control enterprise notifications - As defined in the service control proprietary
MIB (See
After a host or hosts are configured to receive notifications, by default, the Cisco SCE platform sends to
the host or hosts all the notifications supported by the Cisco SCE platform except for the
AuthenticationFailure notification. The Cisco SCE platform provides the option to enable or disable the
sending of this notification, as well as some of the Cisco SCE enterprise notifications, explicitly.
Cisco SCE platform can be configured to generate either SNMPv1 style, SNMPv2c style, or SNMPv3
style notifications. By default, the Cisco SCE platforms sends SNMPv1 notifications.
