Command
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# snmp-server host 16.20.11.14
traps version 3 noauth testuser udp-port 1163
switch(config)# snmp-server host 16.20.11.14
informs version 3 auth testuser udp-port 1163
switch(config)# snmp-server host 16.20.11.14
informs version 3 priv testuser udp-port 1163
switch(config)# no snmp-server host
172.18.2.247 informs version 3 testuser noauth
udp-port 2162
To configure SNMPv3 notifications using IPv6, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# snmp-server host
2001:0DB8:800:200C::417A traps version 3 noauth
testuser udp-port 1163
switch(config)# snmp-server host
2001:0DB8:800:200C::417A informs version 3 auth
testuser udp-port 1163
switch(config)# snmp-server host
2001:0DB8:800:200C::417A informs version 3 priv
testuser udp-port 1163
switch(config)# no snmp-server host
2001:0DB8:800:200C::417A informs version 3
testuser noauth udp-port 2162
In the case of SNMPv3 notifications, the SNMP manager is expected to know the user credentials
Note
(authKey/PrivKey) based on the switch's engineID to authenticate and decrypt the SNMP messages.

Enabling SNMP Notifications

Notifications (traps and informs) are system alerts that the switch generates when certain events occur.
You can enable or disable notifications. By default, no notification is defined or issued. If a notification
name is not specified, all notifications are disabled or enabled.
