Description
Use this command to manage the configuration of the SNMP agent in the switch. The configuration
includes SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 configuration, access control list (ACL) configuration, MIB capability
configuration, and system group configuration. It supports set, reset to default, and display operations.
If you issue this command with incomplete parameters, it displays the command usage.
All values successfully changed by this command take effect immediately and are persistent across power
cycles and reboots. For dual-domain systems, this command is specific to the SNMP agent associated
with the current switch.
SNMPv1 configuration parameters
There are six communities, respective trap recipients, and trap recipient severity levels supported by the
agent. The first three communities are for read-write (rw) access and the last three are for read-only (ro)
access. The default value for the trap recipient of each community is 0.0.0.0. The length of community
string should be in range of 2 to 16 characters. The default values for the community strings are:
Community 1: Secret C0de
Community 2: OrigEquipMfr
Community 3: private
Community 4: public
Community 5: common
Community 6: FibreChannel
NOTE: When secure mode is enabled, community strings can be changed on the primary FCS switch
only and propagate changes across the fabric.
For an SNMP management station to receive a trap generated by the agent, the administrator must
configure a trap recipient to correspond to the IP address of the management station. In addition, the trap
recipient must be able to pass the ACL check, as described in
on page 641.
Trap recipient severity level
The event trap level works in conjunction with an event's severity level. When an event occurs, if its
severity level is at or below the set value, the SNMP traps, and event traps (swEventTrap,
