Configuring SNMP Logging

Introduction to SNMP Logging

SNMP logs the Get and Set operations that the NMS performs on the SNMP agent. When the GET

operation is performed, the agent logs the IP address of the NMS, node name of the GET operation and

OID of the node. When the SET operation is performed, the agent logs the IP address of the NMS, node

name of the SET operation, OID of the node, the value configured and the error code and error index of

the SET response. These logs will be sent to the information center, and the level of them is

informational, that is, they are taken as the system prompt information. With parameters for the

information center configured, the output rules for SNMP logs are decided (that is, whether the logs are

permitted to display and the output destinations).

SNMP logs Get requests, Set requests and Set responses, but does not log Get responses.

other destinations such as the
console or a monitor terminal,
you need to set the output
