Snmp control

[Jonn cos]

Hi all experts.

is there any way in ios configuration to only allow certain host to query router for snmp based information. All other hosts doing any queries shall be denied.

Hi,

You can use an access-list to specify which hosts should be allowed to use a specific SNMP community string.

Switch(config)# access-list 20 permit 10.0.0.10
Switch(config)# access-list 20 permit 10.0.0.11
Switch(config)# snmp-server community STRING-VALUE ro 20

Any hosts not permitted by the ACL will be denied access to the SNMP community,

Hope this helps,

Jonathan
