Description This command configures a threshold value for the number of unsuccessful SNMP connection
attempts allowed in a specified time frame. The command parameters are used to counter denial of
service (DOS) attacks through SNMP.
If the threshold is exceeded, the host is locked out for the lockout time period.
If multiple attempts commands are entered, each command overwrites the previously entered
command.
The no form of the command resets the parameters to the default values.
