where “host-address” is the IP address for the trap receiver, “community-string”
specifies access rights for a version 1/2c host, or is the user name of a version 3 host,
“version” indicates the SNMP client version, and “auth | noauth | priv” means that
authentication, no authentication, or authentication and privacy is used for v3
clients. Then press <Enter>. For a more detailed description of these parameters,
see “snmp-server host” on page 182. The following example creates a trap host for
each type of SNMP client.
Console(config)#snmp-server host 10.1.19.23 batman
Console(config)#snmp-server host 10.1.19.98 robin version 2c
Console(config)#snmp-server host 10.1.19.34 barbie version 3 auth
Console(config)#
Configuring Access for SNMP Version 3 Clients
To configure management access for SNMPv3 clients, you need to first create a
view that defines the portions of MIB that the client can read or write, assign the
view to a group, and then assign the user to a group. The following example creates
one view called “mib-2” that includes the entire MIB-2 tree branch, and then
another view that includes the IEEE 802.1d bridge MIB. It assigns these respective
read and read/write views to a group call “r&d” and specifies group authentication
via MD5 or SHA. In the last step, it assigns a v3 user to this group, indicating that
MD5 will be used for authentication, provides the password “greenpeace” for
authentication, and the password “einstien” for encryption.
Console(config)#snmp-server view mib-2 1.3.6.1.2.1 included
Console(config)#snmp-server view 802.1d 1.3.6.1.2.1.17 included
Console(config)#snmp-server group r&d v3 auth mib-2 802.1d
Console(config)#snmp-server user steve group r&d v3 auth md5 greenpeace priv
des56 einstien
Console(config)#
For a more detailed explanation on how to configure the switch for access from
SNMP v3 clients, refer to "Simple Network Management Protocol" in the Web
Management Guide, or refer to the specific CLI commands for SNMP starting on
page 175.
Managing System Files
The switch’s flash memory supports three types of system files that can be
managed by the CLI program, web interface, or SNMP. The switch’s file system
allows files to be uploaded and downloaded, copied, deleted, and set as a start-up
file.
The types of files are:
◆ Configuration — This file type stores system configuration information and is
created when configuration settings are saved. Saved configuration files can be
