traps not being sent

[MZydorczyk2]

I have macnotification traps enabled and originally I thought I was having a problem receiving the traps but using "show" I see that they are not even being generated because the counters are not being incremented. Any clue on what else I might need to enable?

[MZydorczyk2]

Thanks. We will try upgrading to a newer version to see if it fixes the problem.

While on the topic of traps, is there anyway you can have a switch (4000s, 4500s, and 6500s) send traps on things that aren't specificly in the config mode?

You can enable all traps:

snmp-server enable traps

snmp-server host 10.1.1.1 traps public

For CatOS:

set snmp trap enable all

set snmp trap 10.1.1.1 public

But what I'm asking is that if I enable "all" traps, those are the ONLY ones I can have (the ones the "all" parameter includes)?

[Joe Clarke]

Yes. That will enable all the traps the device supports. To get new traps you'd have to upgrade to a software version in which they've been added.

Ok thank you. That's the answer I was looking for.
