Trap Receivers
You can also specify SNMP stations that are to receive traps from
the switch.
To configure a trap receiver, complete the following steps:
1. From the Privileged Exec level global configuration mode
prompt, type “snmp-server host host-address
community-string,” where “host-address” is the IP address for
the trap receiver and “community-string” is the string
associated with that host. Press .
2. In order to configure the switch to send SNMP notifications,
you must enter at least one snmp-server enable traps
command. Type “snmp-server enable traps type,” where “type”
is either authentication or link-up-down. Press .
Saving Configuration Settings
Configuration commands only modify the running configuration
file and are not saved when the switch is rebooted. To save all
your configuration changes in non-volatile storage, you must copy
the running configuration file to the start-up configuration file
using the “copy” command.
To save the current configuration settings, enter the following
command:
1. From the Privileged Exec mode prompt, type “copy
running-config startup-config” and press .
Console(config)#snmp-server enable traps link-up-down
Console(config)#
