The snmp-server host command specifies which hosts receive the notifications. The snmp-server
enable trap command globally enables the mechanism for the specified notification (for traps and
informs). To enable a host to receive an inform, you must configure an snmp-server host informs
command for the host and globally enable informs by using the snmp-server enable traps command.

Purpose
Configure an SNMP group.
Specify the recipient of an SNMP trap operation.
For host-addr, specify the name or Internet address of the host (the
•
targeted recipient).
(Optional) Enter informs to send SNMP informs to the host.
•
(Optional) Enter traps (the default) to send SNMP traps to the host.
•
(Optional) Specify the SNMP version (1, 2c, or 3). SNMPv1 is not
•
available with informs.
(Optional) For Version 3, select authentication level auth, noauth, or
•
priv.
The priv keyword is available only when the cryptographic
Note
software image is installed.
• For community-string, when version 1 or version 2c is specified,
enter the password-like community string sent with the notification
operation. When version 3 is specified, enter the SNMPv3 username.
(Optional) For notification-type, use the keywords listed in
•
Table 27-4 on page 27-11. If no type is specified, all notifications are
sent.
Enable the switch to send traps or informs and specify the type of
notifications to be sent. For a list of notification types, see
page 27-11, or enter this: snmp-server enable traps ?
To enable multiple types of traps, you must enter a separate snmp-server
enable traps command for each trap type.
(Optional) Specify the source interface, which provides the IP address for
the trap message. This command also sets the source IP address for
informs.
(Optional) Establish the message queue length for each trap host. The
range is 1 to 1000; the default is 10.
(Optional) Define how often to resend trap messages. The range is 1 to
1000; the default is 30 seconds.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
