enable snmp access

ExtremeWare XOS 10.1 Command Reference Guide 115

enable snmp access

Description

Turns on SNMP support for SNMPv3 and v1/v2c on the switch.

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or variables.

Default

Enabled.

Usage Guidelines

To have access to the SNMP agent residing in the switch, at least one VLAN must have an IP address

assigned to it.

Any network manager running SNMP can manage the switch (for v1/v2c), provided the MIB is

installed correctly on the management station. Each network manager provides its own user interface to

the management facilities.

For SNMPv3, additional security keys are used to control access, so an SNMPv3 manager is required for

this type of access.

This command enables both v1/v2c and v3 access, so the switch can be accessed with either method.

Use the following commands to allow only v3 access:

enable snmp access

disable snmp access snmp-v1v2c

Use the following command to prevent any SNMP access:

disable snmp access

There is no way to disable v3 access and allow v1/v2c access.

Example

The following command enables all SNMP access for the switch:

enable snmp access
