Note: This example illustrates how to configure an SNMPv2 trap notification. Creating an

SNMPv1 or v3 Trap, or an SNMPv3 Inform notification would require using the same commands

with different parameters, where appropriate. Always ensure that v1/v2 communities or v3 users

used for generating traps or informs are pre-configured with enough privileges to access

corresponding MIBs.

Table 7-22 Basic SNMP Trap Configuration

To do this... Use these commands...

Create a community name. set snmp community

Create an SNMP target parameters entry. set snmp targetparams

Verify if any applicable SNMP notification

entries exist.

show snmp notify

Create a new notification entry. set snmp notify

Create a target address entry. set snmp targetaddr
