• Use the SHOW SNMP command to see the initial SNMP configuration. (For example output, see 7.3.4,
Default Configuration.)
• Enable SNMP so it is possible to create an SNMP community.
• Enable SNMP authentication traps.
• Create the SNMP community; provide a name and the list of trusted trap hosts and management stations.
• Enable the SNMP community, and then enable traps for that community.
