Configuring SNMP notifications
The SNMP Agent sends notifications (traps and informs) to inform the NMS of significant events,
such as link state changes and user logins or logouts. Unless otherwise stated, the trap keyword in
the command line includes both traps and informs.
Enabling SNMP notifications
Enable an SNMP notification only if necessary. SNMP notifications are memory-intensive and might
affect device performance.
To generate linkUp or linkDown notifications when the link state of an interface changes, you must
perform the following tasks:
• Enable linkUp or linkDown notification globally by using the snmp-agent trap enable standard
[ linkdown | linkup ] * command.
• Enable linkUp or linkDown notification on the interface by using the enable snmp trap updown
command.
After you enable notifications for a module, whether the module generates notifications also depends
on the configuration of the module. For more information, see the configuration guide for each
module.

Configuring the SNMP agent to send notifications to a host
You can configure the SNMP agent to send notifications as traps or informs to a host, typically an
NMS, for analysis and management. Traps are less reliable and use fewer resources than informs,
because an NMS does not send an acknowledgment when it receives a trap.
Configuration guidelines
When network congestion occurs or the destination is not reachable, the SNMP agent buffers
notifications in a queue. You can configure the queue size and the notification lifetime (the maximum
