Core

Network

SNMP NMS Server

10.1.30.10

In this configuration example, we wish to accomplish the following:

• Change the ‘rwa’ community string to rwa123pp8600

• Change the ‘ro’ community string to ro567pp8600

• Add a trap receiver using the IP address of the SNMP NMS server

To accomplish the above, please complete the following steps:

A) Add the new rwa community string

• ERS-8606:5# config sys set snmp community rwa rwa123pp8600

B) Add the new ro community string

• ERS-8606:5# config sys set snmp community ro ro567pp8600

C) Add the SNMP trap receiver

• ERS-8606:5# config sys set snmp trap-recv 10.1.30.10 v1 puplic

NOTE: The Circuit-less IP (CLIP) can be used as the Source IP address for the SNMP traps. If

you wish to use the CLIP address, assuming the CLIP address is 1.1.1.1/32, enter the following

commands:

• ERS-8606:5# config sys set snmp trap-recv 10.1.30.10 v1 puplic 1.1.1.1

• ERS-8606:5# config sys set snmp force-trap-sender true

To view the SNMP communities, enter the following commands:
