snmp-server enable traps
This command enables this device to send Simple Network Management
Protocol traps or informs (i.e., SNMP notifications). Use the no form to
disable SNMP notifications.
Syntax
[no] snmp-server enable traps [authentication | link-up-down]
authentication - Keyword to issue authentication failure
notifications.
link-up-down - Keyword to issue link-up or link-down
notifications.
Default Setting
Issue authentication and link-up-down traps.
Command Mode
Global Configuration
Command Usage
If you do not enter an snmp-server enable traps command, no
notifications controlled by this command are sent. In order to
configure this device to send SNMP notifications, you must enter at
least one snmp-server enable traps command. If you enter the
command with no keywords, both authentication and link-up-down
notifications are enabled. If you enter the command with a keyword,
only the notification type related to that keyword is enabled.
•The snmp-server enable traps command is used in conjunction with
the snmp-server host command. Use the snmp-server host
command to specify which host or hosts receive SNMP notifications.
In order to send notifications, you must configure at least one
snmp-server host command.
• The authentication, link-up, and link-down traps are legacy
notifications, and therefore when used for SNMP Version 3 hosts, they
must be enabled in conjunction with the corresponding entries in the
Notify View assigned by the
snmp-server group command
(page 4-163).
