SNMP Parameters for the Switch
You can configure the following SNMP parameters for the switch.
Field Description
Host Name Host name of the switch.
System Contact Name of the person who acts as the System Contact or administrator for
the switch.
System Location String to describe the location of the switch.
Read Community Strings Community strings used to authenticate requests for SNMP versions before
version 3.
NOTE: This is needed only if using SNMP v2c and is not needed if using
version 3.
Enable Trap Generation Enables generation of SNMP traps to configured SNMP trap receivers.
Refer to the list of traps in the “SNMP traps” section below for a list of traps
that are generated by the switch.
Trap receivers Host information about a trap receiver. This host needs to be running a trap
receiver to receive and interpret the traps sent by the Alcatel-Lucent switch.
Configure the following for each host/trap receiver:
n IP address
n SNMP version: can be 1, 2c, or 3.
n Type: Trap or Inform (SNMPv2c or SNMPv3 only)
n Engine ID: (SNMPv3 only)
n Security string
n UDP port on which the trap receiver is listening for traps. The default is
the UDP port number 162. This is optional, and will use the default port
number if not modified by the user.
If you are using SNMPv3 to obtain values from the switch, you can configure the following parameters:
User name A string representing the name of the user.
Authentication protocol An indication of whether messages sent on behalf of this user can be
authenticated, and if so, the type of authentication protocol used. This can
take one of the two values:
n MD5: HMAC-MD5-96 Digest Authentication Protocol
n SHA: HMAC-SHA-96 Digest Authentication Protocol
