TrustedNMS

Use TrustedNMS (trusted network management system) to configure a “trusted network management system” on the
switch. The trusted NMS is identified by its IP address. Only the trusted network management system is allowed to
perform critical operations such as:

Backup or restore a switch configuration

Add trap destinations for another NMS

Download switch software images

When SNMP is used, the IP address of the requesting station is checked against the trusted NMS address as a method
of switch security. There can be only one trusted NMS configured on a switch.
