SNMP
Notification Recipients
Cisco 500 Series Stackable Managed Switch Administration Guide Release 1.3 524
26
The Notification Recipients SNMPv1,2 page and the Notification Recipients
SNMPv3 page enable configuring the destination to which SNMP notifications are
sent, and the types of SNMP notifications that are sent to each destination (traps
or informs). The Add/Edit pop-ups enable configuring the attributes of the
notifications.
An SNMP notification is a message sent from the device to the SNMP
management station indicating that a certain event has occurred, such as a link up/
down.
It is also possible to filter certain notifications. This can be done by creating a filter
in the Notification Filter page and attaching it to an SNMP notification recipient.
The notification filter enables filtering the type of SNMP notifications that are sent
to the management station based on the OID of the notification that is about to be
sent.
Defining SNMPv1,2 Notification Recipients
To define a recipient in SNMPv1,2:
STEP 1 Click SNMP > Notification Recipients SNMPv1,2.
This page contains recipients for SNMPv1,2.
STEP 2 Click Add.
STEP 3 Enter the parameters.
• Server Definition—Select whether to specify the remote log server by IP
address or name.
• IP Version—Select either IPv4 or IPv6.
• IPv6 Address Type—Select either Link Local or Global.
- Link Local—The IPv6 address uniquely identifies hosts on a single
network link. A link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not routable, and
can be used for communication only on the local network. Only one link
local address is supported. If a link local address exists on the interface,
this entry replaces the address in the configuration.
- Global—The IPv6 address is a global Unicast IPV6 type that is visible and
reachable from other networks.
• Link Local Interface—If the IPv6 address type is Link Local, select whether
it is received through a VLAN or ISATAP.
