SNMP Target Host Commands
– 183 –
notifications are enabled. If you enter the command with a keyword, only the
notification type related to that keyword is enabled.
◆ The snmp-server enable traps command is used in conjunction with the
snmp-server host command. Use the snmp-server host command to specify
which host or hosts receive SNMP notifications. In order to send notifications,
you must configure at least one snmp-server host command.
◆ The authentication traps are legacy notifications, and therefore when used for
SNMP Version 3 hosts, they must be enabled in conjunction with the
corresponding entries in the Notify View assigned by the snmp-server group
command.
◆ Interface link-up and link-down traps can be configured using the snmp-server
enable port-traps link-up-down command.
Example
Console(config)#snmp-server enable traps authentication
Console(config)#

Syntax
snmp-server host host-addr [inform [retry retries | timeout seconds]]
community-string [version {1 | 2c | 3 {auth | noauth | priv} [udp-port port]}
no snmp-server host host-addr
host-addr - IPv4 or IPv6 address of the host (the targeted recipient).
(Maximum host addresses: 5 trap destination IP address entries)
inform - Notifications are sent as inform messages. Note that this option is
only available for version 2c and 3 hosts. (Default: traps are used)
retries - The maximum number of times to resend an inform message if
the recipient does not acknowledge receipt. (Range: 0-255; Default: 3)
seconds - The number of seconds to wait for an acknowledgment
before resending an inform message. (Range: 0-2147483647
centiseconds; Default: 1500 centiseconds)
community-string - Password-like community string sent with the
notification operation to SNMP V1 and V2c hosts. Although you can set this
string using the snmp-server host command by itself, we recommend
defining it with the snmp-server community command prior to using the
snmp-server host command. (Maximum length: 32 characters)
