Subscribing to Managed Object Value Updates using
SNMP
By default, the Dell EMC Networking system displays some unsolicited SNMP messages (traps) upon certain events and
conditions.
You can also configure the system to send the traps to a management station. Traps cannot be saved on the system.
Dell EMC Networking OS supports the following three sets of traps:
RFC 1157-defined traps coldStart, warmStart, linkDown, linkUp, authenticationFailure, and egpNeighbborLoss.
Dell EMC Networking enterpriseSpecific environment traps fan, supply, and temperature.
Dell EMC Networking enterpriseSpecific protocol traps bgp, ecfm, stp, and xstp.
To configure the system to send SNMP notifications, use the following commands.
1. Configure the Dell EMC Networking system to send notifications to an SNMP server.
CONFIGURATION mode
snmp-server host ip-address [traps | informs] [version 1 | 2c |3] [community-string]
To send trap messages, enter the keyword traps.
To send informational messages, enter the keyword informs.
To send the SNMP version to use for notification messages, enter the keyword version.
To identify the SNMPv1 community string, enter the name of the community-string.
2. Specify which traps the Dell EMC Networking system sends to the trap receiver.
CONFIGURATION mode
snmp-server enable traps
Enable all Dell EMC Networking enterprise-specific and RFC-defined traps using the snmp-server enable traps
command from CONFIGURATION mode.
Enable all of the RFC-defined traps using the snmp-server enable traps snmp command from CONFIGURATION
mode.
3. Specify the interfaces out of which Dell EMC Networking OS sends SNMP traps.
CONFIGURATION mode
snmp-server trap-source
The following example lists the RFC-defined SNMP traps and the command used to enable each. The coldStart and warmStart
traps are enabled using a single command.
snmp authentication SNMP_AUTH_FAIL:SNMP Authentication failed.Request with invalid
community string.
snmp coldstart SNMP_COLD_START: Agent Initialized - SNMP COLD_START.
SNMP_WARM_START:Agent Initialized - SNMP WARM_START.
