Installing a New G700 with an S8300
Configuring an SNMP community string for traps
SNMP requires community strings to be used for each SNMP 'request'. You can set only three
community strings on the G700 — one each for read requests, write requests, and traps.
To configure an SNMP community string for traps
1. Telnet to the P330 stack processor.
2. Log in as root.
3. At the P330-1(super)# prompt, type set snmp community trap [community
string] and press Enter.
4. Type exit
Configuring the destination for G700 SNMP traps
Events occurring on the G700 cause SNMP traps to be generated. The G700 MGP can be
configured to send SNMP traps to any network management system (NMS) in the network,
including the primary server (S8300, S8500, or S8700). The MGP CLI set snmp trap
command is the way to configure the NMS network element that will receive those traps.
The command syntax is:
set SNMP trap <IP address> {enable|disable}
[{all|power|temp|app|module|config|voice|operations}]
where
<IP address> is the IP address of the NMS trap receiver that will be receiving the traps
from the G700, and
[{all|power|temp|app|module|config|voice|operations}] indicates the
groups whose traps will be sent to the specified receiver. If no keywords follow the IP
address entry, then 'all' traps will be enabled for the specified receiver.
If 'enable' or 'disable' is used without a trap designation keyword, then 'all' traps is
assumed. Up to ten trap receivers can be configured.
To configure the destination for G700 SNMP traps
1. At the P330-1(super)# prompt, type session mgp
2. At the mg-xxx-n(super-user)# prompt, type configure and press Enter.
3. At the mg-xxx-n(configure)# prompt, type
set snmp trap <IP address> enable
and press Enter.
4. Type exit
