Disabling the SNMP Agent

An SNMP engine ID is a name for the local or remote SNMP engine.

Disabling the SNMP Agent

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to disable the SNMP agent:

The no snmp-server global configuration command disables all running versions on the device. No
specific Cisco IOS command exists to enable SNMP. The first snmp-server global configuration
command that you enter enables all versions of SNMP.

Configuring Community Strings

You use the SNMP community string to define the relationship between the SNMP manager and the
agent. The community string acts like a password to permit access to the agent on the ML-Series card
card. Optionally, you can specify one or more of these characteristics associated with the string:

An access list of IP addresses of the SNMP managers that are permitted to use the community string
to gain access to the agent

A MIB view, which defines the subset of all MIB objects accessible to the given community

Read and write or read-only permission for the MIB objects accessible to the community
