Configuring SNMP Traps for Real Servers

When enabled, an SNMP trap is sent to an external management device each time a real server changes
its state (for example, each time a server is taken in or out of service). The trap contains an object
identifier (OID) that identifies it as a real-server trap.
The real server trap OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.161.2
Note
The trap also contains a message describing the reason for the server state change.
Use the snmp-server enable traps slb ft command to either enable or disable fault-tolerant traps
associated with the SLB function of the Catalyst 6500 switch. A fault-tolerant trap deals with the fault
tolerance aspects of SLB. For example, when fault-tolerant traps are enabled and the SLB device detects
a failure in its fault-tolerant peer, it sends an SNMP trap as it transitions from standby to active.
To configure SNMP traps for real servers, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
Router (config)# snmp-server
community public
Step 2
Router (config)# snmp-server
host host-addr
Step 3
Router (config)# snmp-server
enable traps slb csrp

Configuring the XML Interface

In previous releases, the only method available for configuration of the CSM was the IOS command line
interface. With XML, you can configure the CSM using a Document Type Definition or DTD. Refer to
Appendix C, "CSM XML Document Type Definition"
OL-4612-01
Configuring SNMP Traps for Real Servers, page 8-13
Configuring the XML Interface, page 8-13
The no form of this command disables the SNMP fault-tolerant traps feature.
Purpose
Defines a password-like community string sent with the
notification operation. The example string is public.
Defines the IP address of an external network management device
to which traps are sent.
Enables SNMP traps for real servers
for a sample of an XML DTD.
