Quick Steps for Setting Up An SNMP
Management Station
An SNMP Network Management Station (NMS) is a workstation configured to receive SNMP traps from
the switch. To set up an SNMP NMS using the switch’s CLI, proceed as follows:
1 Specify the user account name and the authentication type for that user. For example:
-> user NMSuserV3MD5DES md5+des password ********
2 Specify the UDP destination port number (in this case 8010), the IP address of the management station
(199.199.100.200), a user account name (NMSuserV3MD5DES), and the SNMP version number (v3). For
example:
-> snmp station 199.199.100.200 8010 NMSuserV3MD5DES v3 enable
Note. Optional. To verify the SNMP Management Station, enter the show snmp station command. The
display is similar to the one shown here:
-> show snmp station
ipAddress/udpPort status protocol user
---------------------------+---------+--------+-------------------------------
199.199.100.200/8010 enable v3 NMSuserV3MD5DES
199.199.101.201/111 disable v2 NMSuserV3MD5
199.199.102.202/8002 enable v1 NMSuserV3SHADES
