SNMPv3 Notification and Traps

The switches covered by this manual support the SNMPv3 notification pro­
cess. They also support version 1 or version 2c traps. For more information
on version 1 or version2c traps, see "SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c Trap Features"
on page 14-20. The SNMPv3 notification process allows for the messages
passed to be authenticated and encrypted if you choose. To set up a SNMPv3
notification there are three steps:
1. Establish a Notification with the snmpv3 notify command
2. Point the notification to an Address with the snmpv3 targetaddress com­
mand.
3. Establish a parameter record for the target address with the snmpv3
params command.

a mapping you only need the < notify_name >.
[no] snmpv3 targetaddress < name > taglist < tag > params
