snmp-server context
Defines an SNMP context. An SNMP context is a collection of management information that an
SNMP entity can access. A single management information item can be in more than one
context. An SNMP entity potentially has access to many contexts.
Typically, you use contexts as part of an SNMP version 3 network management environment.
However, you may also associate contexts with SNMP version 1 and SNMP version 2c
communities.
Use the no snmp-server context command to remove a context.
