Verify Communication Between Monitored Device and
Insight RS
To verify communication between your monitored device and Insight RS, complete the following steps:
Verifying SNMP Communication
There is not a way to manually verify the SNMP configuration without generating an event, which can only
be accomplished by performing an action like pulling a fan tray or disconnecting a power supply.
Note: Do not pull a redundant FRU to test the configuration.
You can verify SNMP communication by reviewing the running configuration from the ComWare-based
switch command line. Look for the snmp-agent section in the output and verify that the community string
is correct and the trap destination is the Hosting Device.
To display the running configuration, run the following command:
> display current-configuration
