Chapter 11 Configuring SNMP
Set the parameters for the SNMP trap destinations so the sensor knows which management workstations
Step 5
to send them to:
a. Type the IP address of the SNMP management station:
sensor(config-not)# trap-destinations 10.1.1.1
Type the UDP port of the SNMP management station:
b.
sensor(config-not-tra)# trap-port 162
The default is 162.
Type the trap Community string:
c.
sensor(config-not-tra)# trap-community-name AUSTIN_PUBLI
Note
Step 6 Verify the settings:
sensor(config-not-tra)# exit
sensor(config-not)# show settings
trap-destinations (min: 0, max: 10, current: 1)

The community string appears in the trap and is useful if you are receiving multiple types of
traps from multiple agents. For example, a router or sensor could be sending the traps, and
if you put something that identifies the router or sensor specifically in your community
string, you can filter the traps based on the community string.
