Chapter 7 Configuring SNMP
Detailed Steps
Command
Step 1
config
Example:
host1/Admin# config
host1/Admin(config)#
Step 2
snmp-server host host_address
{ community-string_username | informs |
traps | version {1{udp-port} | 2c
{udp-port} | 3 [auth | noauth | priv]}}
Example:
host1/Admin(config)# snmp-server host
192.168.1.1 traps version 2c
SNMP_Community1 udp-port 500
OL-20823-01
Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Specifies which host receives SNMP notifications.
The keywords, arguments, and options are as follows:
host_address—IP address of the host (the targeted recipient).
•
Enter the address in dotted-decimal IP notation (for example,
192.168.11.1).
community-string_username—SNMP community string or
•
username with the notification operation. Enter an unquoted
text string with no space and a maximum of 32 alphanumeric
characters.
informs—Sends SNMP inform requests to the identified
•
host, which allows for manager-to-manager communication.
Inform requests can be useful when the need arises for more
than one NMS in the network.
traps—Sends SNMP traps to the identified host. A trap is the
•
method for an agent to tell the NMS that a problem has
occurred. The trap originates from the agent and is sent to the
trap destination, as configured within the agent itself.
Typically the trap destination is the IP address of the NMS.
version—Specifies the version of SNMP used to send the
•
traps. SNMPv3 is the most secure model because it allows
packet encryption with the priv keyword.
1—Specifies SNMPv1. This option is not available for use
•
with SNMP inform requests. SNMPv1 has one optional
keyword (udp-port) that specifies the UDP port of the host
to use. The default is 162.
2c—Specifies SNMPv2C. SNMPv2C has one optional
•
keyword (udp-port) that specifies the UDP port of the host
to use. The default is 162.
3—Specifies SNMPv3. SNMPv3 has three optional
•
keywords (auth, no auth, or priv).
auth—(Optional) Enables Message Digest 5 (MD5) and
•
Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) packet authentication.
noauth—(Optional) Specifies the noAuthNoPriv security
•
level.
priv—(Optional) Enables Data Encryption Standard (DES)
•
packet encryption (privacy).
