Multiple SNMP server configured on a switch

[RFC_2549]

Hello,

Is It possibile to configure more than one SNMP server on a switch? So, if I have a current configurazione like "snmp-server host 192.168.10.10 version ..." can I ads a second command like "snmp-server host 192.268.30.40" version ..."? This for using two SNMP servers at the same time

Thank You and kind regards

Hello @RFC_2549 

Yes, it is possible to configure more than one SNMP server on a switch by issuing multiple snmp-server host commands.

You will increased reliability and redundancy, ensuring that SNMP messages are received even if one server fails. However, a potential downside is the increased complexity in management and potential for configuration errors, as well as additional load on the network from sending duplicate SNMP traps to multiple server.

yes they can co-exist with different community or same community.

Suggest to use SNMv3 - it has more  secure and improved.
