Command Reference Guide
162 CHAPTER 6: IP SERVICES COMMANDS
set snmp notify
target
Configures a notification target for informs from SNMP.
A notification target is a remote device to which MSS sends SNMP
notifications. You can configure the MSS SNMP engine to send
confirmed notifications (informs) or unconfirmed notifications (traps).
Some of the command options differ depending on the SNMP version
and the type of notification you specify. You can configure up to 10
notification targets.
SNMPv3 with Informs
To configure a notification target for informs from SNMPv3, use the
following command:
Syntax —
set snmp notify target target-num
ip-addr[:udp-port-number]
usm inform user
username
snmp-engine-id {ip | hex hex-string}
[
profile profile-name]
[
security {unsecured | authenticated | encrypted}]
[
retries num]
[
timeout num]
target-num — ID for the target. This ID is local to the WX switch and
does not need to correspond to a value on the target itself. You can
specify a number from 1 to 10.
ip-addr[:udp-port-number] — IP address of the server. You also
can specify the UDP port number to send notifications to.
username — USM username. This option is applicable only when the
SNMP version is usm.
If the user will send informs rather than traps, you also must specify
the snmp-engine-id of the target.
snmp-engine-id {ip | hex hex-string} — SNMP engine ID of the
target. Specify ip if the target’s SNMP engine ID is based on its
IP address. If the target’s SNMP engine ID is a hexadecimal value, use
hex hex-string to specify the value.
profile profile-name — Notification profile this SNMP user will use
to specify the notification types to send or drop.
