Hey All,
Just wondering if anyone could help with an issue I'm having trying to get SNMP functioning correctly on a switch.
We have a mature environment with switches logging to an NMS. I've recently added a new switch, and am having difficulty adding it to this structure.
I've copied the SNMP config on the working switch to the new one, as follows:
snmp-server community pub RO 10
snmp-server community test RO 11
snmp-server location LAN
snmp-server contact IT
snmp-server chassis-id SN:#######
I never see any communication between the new switch and the NMS however. An output of 'sho snmp' is as follows:
0 SNMP packets input
0 Bad SNMP version errors
0 Unknown community name
0 Illegal operation for community name supplied
0 Encoding errors
0 Number of requested variables
0 Number of altered variables
0 Get-request PDUs
0 Get-next PDUs
0 Set-request PDUs
0 Input queue packet drops (Maximum queue size 1000)
0 SNMP packets output
0 Too big errors (Maximum packet size 1500)
0 No such name errors
0 Bad values errors
0 General errors
0 Response PDUs
0 Trap PDUs
SNMP global trap: disabled
SNMP logging: disabled
SNMP agent enabled
So it's not like packets are getting lost in between, they're never being originated. I can't find any Cisco documentation that I've missed. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hello! You have to configure the ip address for NMS.Example: snmp-server host XXXX community.

For sending traps you do need at least one host plus you need to enable traps to send.
Ex; snmp-server enable traps .....
For polling the device you are using acl 10 & 11, make sure the ACLs are correct
