Usage
Information
In order to configure the router to send SNMP notifications, enter at least one snmp-server host
command. If you enter the command with no keywords, all trap types are enabled for the host. If you do
not enter an snmp-server host command, no notifications are sent.
In order to enable multiple hosts, issue a separate snmp-server host command for each host. You can
specify multiple notification types in the command for each host.
