PurposeCommand or Action
Enters the global configuration mode.configure terminal
Example:
Switch# configure terminal
Step 2
Configures a name for either the local or remote copy of SNMP.snmp-server engineID {local
engineid-string | remote ip-address
[udp-port port-number] engineid-string}
Step 3
•
The engineid-string is a 24-character ID string with the name of the copy
of SNMP. You need not specify the entire 24-character engine ID if it has
Example:
Switch(config)# snmp-server
engineID local 1234
trailing zeros. Specify only the portion of the engine ID up to the point
where only zeros remain in the value. The Step Example configures an
engine ID of 123400000000000000000000.
•
If you select remote, specify the ip-address of the device that contains the
remote copy of SNMP and the optional User Datagram Protocol (UDP)
port on the remote device. The default is 162.
Configures a new SNMP group on the remote device.
snmp-server group group-name {v1 |
v2c | v3 {auth | noauth | priv}} [read
Step 4
For group-name, specify the name of the group.
readview] [write writeview] [notify
notifyview] [access access-list]
Specify one of the following security models:
Example:
Switch(config)# snmp-server group
public v2c access lmnop
•
v1 is the least secure of the possible security models.
•
v2c is the second least secure model. It allows transmission of informs and
integers twice the normal width.
•
v3, the most secure, requires you to select one of the following
authentication levels:
auth—Enables the Message Digest 5 (MD5) and the Secure Hash Algorithm
(SHA) packet authentication.
noauth—Enables the noAuthNoPriv security level. This is the default if
no keyword is specified.
priv—Enables Data Encryption Standard (DES) packet encryption (also
called privacy).
(Optional) Enter read readview with a string (not to exceed 64 characters) that
is the name of the view in which you can only view the contents of the agent.
(Optional) Enter write writeview with a string (not to exceed 64 characters) that
is the name of the view in which you enter data and configure the contents of the
agent.
(Optional) Enter notify notifyview with a string (not to exceed 64 characters)
that is the name of the view in which you specify a notify, inform, or trap.
(Optional) Enter access access-list with a string (not to exceed 64 characters)
that is the name of the access list.
