The snmp-server host command specifies which hosts receive the notifications. The snmp-server
enable trap command globally enables the mechanism for the specified notification (for traps and
informs). To enable a host to receive an inform, you must configure an snmp-server host informs
command for the host and globally enable informs by using the snmp-server enable traps command.
To remove the specified host from receiving traps, use the no snmp-server host host global
configuration command. The no snmp-server host command with no keywords disables traps, but not
informs, to the host. To disable informs, use the no snmp-server host informs global configuration
command. To disable a specific trap type, use the no snmp-server enable traps notification-types global
configuration command.

Purpose
Enable the switch to send traps or informs and specify the type of
notifications to be sent. For a list of notification types, see
page 27-12, or enter snmp-server enable traps ?
To enable multiple types of traps, you must enter a separate snmp-server
enable traps command for each trap type.
(Optional) Specify the source interface, which provides the IP address for
the trap message. This command also sets the source IP address for
informs.
(Optional) Establish the message queue length for each trap host. The
range is 1 to 1000; the default is 10.
(Optional) Define how often to resend trap messages. The range is 1 to
1000; the default is 30 seconds.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
Purpose
Enter global configuration mode.
Set the system contact string.
For example:
snmp-server contact Dial System Operator at beeper 21555.
Set the system location string.
For example:
snmp-server location Building 3/Room 222
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
