If you receive messages in the browser or in a pop-up window when logging in to the target switch
using HTTPS, refer to Table 3-8.
Configuring for SNMP
You can configure for the automatic transmission of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
information to management stations. SNMPv3 and SNMPv1 are supported.
The configuration process involves configuring the SNMP agent and configuring SNMP traps. The
following commands are used in the process:
• Use the configure command to set the security level. You can specify no security, authentication
only, or authentication and privacy.
• Use the snmpConfig command to configure the SNMP agent and traps for SNMPv3 or
SNMPv1 configurations.
• If necessary for backward compatibility, you can use these legacy commands to configure for
SNMP v1:
- Use the agtCfgShow, agtCfgset, and agtCfgDefault commands to configure the SNMPv1
agent.
- Use the snmpMibCapSet command to filter at the trap level and the snmpMibCapShow
command to display the trap filter values.
