Set operation—The agent logs the NMS' IP address, name of accessed node, node OID, variable

value, and error code and index for the Set operation.

The SNMP module sends these logs to the information center as informational messages. You can

configure the information center to output these messages to certain destinations, for example, the

console and the log buffer. The total output size for the node field (MIB node name) and the value field

(value of the MIB node) in each log entry is 1024 bytes. If this limit is exceeded, the information center
truncates the data in the fields. For more information about the information center, see "Configuring the

information center."

Configuring SNMP traps

The SNMP agent sends traps to inform the NMS of important events, such as a reboot.
Traps fall into generic traps and vendor-specific traps. Available generic traps include authentication,

coldstart, linkdown, linkup and warmstart. All other traps are vendor-defined.
SNMP traps generated by a module are sent to the information center. You can configure the information
center to enable or disable outputting the traps from a module by severity and set output destinations. For

more information about the information center, see "Configuring the information center."

Enabling SNMP traps

Enable SNMP traps only if necessary. SNMP traps are memory-intensive and may affect device

performance.
To generate linkUp or linkDown traps when the link state of an interface changes, enable the linkUp or

linkDown trap function both globally by using the snmp-agent trap enable [ standard [ linkdown |
linkup ] * ] command and on the interface by using the enable snmp trap updown command.
After you enable a trap function for a module, whether the module generates traps also depends on the

configuration of the module. For more information, see the configuration guide for each module.
