SNMP Target Host Commands
– 781 –
To send an inform to a SNMPv3 host, complete these steps:
1. Enable the SNMP agent (page 775).
2. Create a local SNMPv3 user to use in the message exchange
process (page 785).
3. Create a view with the required notification messages (page 786).
4. Create a group that includes the required notify view (page 784).
5. Allow the switch to send SNMP traps; i.e., notifications (page 778).
6. Specify the target host that will receive inform messages with the
snmp-server host command as described in this section.
â—† The switch can send SNMP Version 1, 2c or 3 notifications to a host IP
address, depending on the SNMP version that the management station
supports. If the snmp-server host command does not specify the
SNMP version, the default is to send SNMP version 1 notifications.
â—† If you specify an SNMP Version 3 host, then the community string is
interpreted as an SNMP user name. The user name must first be
defined with the snmp-server user command. Otherwise, an SNMPv3
group will be automatically created by the snmp-server host
command using the name of the specified community string, and
default settings for the read, write, and notify view.
EXAMPLE
Console(config)#snmp-server host 10.1.19.23 batman
