Task 2: Configuring the NRP-2 to Use the NSP as the Proxy Forwarder
To configure the NRP-2 to communicate with the NSP as the proxy forwarder, complete the following
steps in global configuration mode:
When you complete the previous steps, the NRP-2 automatically generates snmp-server user and
snmp-server group commands in the configuration.
If you do not select any specific types of traps, the NRP-2 also automatically generates snmp-server
enable traps commands to specify all available types of traps.
Note Do not modify or delete the automatically generated commands, because doing so may prevent SNMP
from working properly.
Example
In the following example, the NRP-2 is configured to allow the NSP to act as the proxy forwarder:
snmp-server group usmgrp v3 noauth
snmp-server user usmusr usmgrp v3
snmp-server enable traps
snmp-server host 10.3.0.1 vrf 6400-private version 3 noauth trapusr
The previous commands cause the NRP-2 to automatically generate the following commands:
snmp-server user trapusr trapusr v3
snmp-server group trapusr v3 noauth notify *tv.FFFFFFFF.FFFFFFFF
snmp-server enable traps snmp authentication linkdown linkup coldstart
snmp-server enable traps config
snmp-server enable traps syslog
snmp-server enable traps bgp
snmp-server enable traps ipmulticast
snmp-server enable traps rsvp
snmp-server enable traps frame-relay
snmp-server enable traps rtr
Command (Entered on the NRP-2) Purpose
Step1
Router(config)# snmp-server group groupname v3 noauth
Configures a new SNMPv3 group. Make sure that
the groupname argument entry matches that
entered on the NSP in Task1.
Step2
Router(config)# snmp-server user username groupname v3
Configures a new user to an SNMPv3 group.
Make sure that the username and groupname
argument entries match those entered on the NSP
in Task1.
Step3
Router(config)# snmp-server enable traps [config |
syslog | bgp | ipmulticast | rsvp | frame-relay | rtr
| snmp authentication linkdown linkup coldstart]
Enables the NRP-2 to send traps. Optionally, you
can select from specific types of traps.
Step4
Router(config)# snmp-server host 10.nrp2-slot.0.1
vrf 6400-private version 3 noauth username
Specifies the NSP as the recipient of SNMPv3 trap
messages. The 10.nrp2-slot.0.1 IP address is the
private address for the internal NSP interface to
the NRP-2 PAM mailbox serial interface.
