Is it possible to SNMP to other devices from a router?

[GeoffTolton]

Hi

I would like to be able to issue snmpset and snmpget commands to a particular device from my router.This must be done using SNMP V3

For example,

snmpset -v 3 -u <user> -l authPriv -A <auth> -X <priv> -a SHA -x AES <host IP>  <OID>

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks

Geoff

Hi Geoff,

on a 7600/SRE4 I do see such a possibility:

7600#snmp get ?

  v1   use the SNMPv1 protocol

  v2c  use the SNMPv2c protocol

  v3   use the SNMPv3 protocol

7600#snmp get v3 ?

  WORD  IP/IPv6 address or hostname of SNMP destination

7600#snmp get v3

HTH,

Ivan.

Hi Ivan

That is very interesting, thanks. I had been told by Cisco that it was not possible and that there were no plans to introduce it!

I will look further into this.....

Thanks again
