What to Do Next
The snmp-server host command specifies which hosts receive the notifications. The snmp-server enable
trap command globally enables the method for the specified notification (for traps and informs). To enable
a host to receive an inform, you must configure an snmp-server host informs command for the host and
globally enable informs by using the snmp-server enable traps command.
To remove the specified host from receiving traps, use the no snmp-server host host global configuration
command. The no snmp-server host command with no keywords disables traps, but not informs, to the host.
To disable informs, use the no snmp-server host informs global configuration command. To disable a specific
trap type, use the no snmp-server enable traps notification-types global configuration command.
