Configuring SNMP

Virtualization Support for SNMP

Cisco NX-OS supports one instance of the SNMP per virtual device context (VDC). By default, Cisco NX-OS
places you in the default VDC. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series NX-OS Virtual Device
Context Configuration Guide.
SNMP supports multiple MIB module instances and maps them to logical network entities. For more
information, see the "Multiple Instance Support" section.
SNMP is also VRF aware. You can configure SNMP to use a particular VRF to reach the SNMP notification
host receiver. You can also configure SNMP to filter notifications to an SNMP host receiver based on the
VRF where the notification occurred. For more information, see the "Configuring SNMP Notification Receivers
with VRFs" section.
