Configuring Traps
In simple terms, SNMP accessories are letters that are triggered by an accident such as
an interface activity down.The SNMP accessories are beatific on UDP anchorage 162 and are not
encrypted.To configure and use SNMP traps, chase these steps:
1. Configure the SNMP community.
PIX1(config)# snmp-server association Il0v3CiSCo
2. Configure the SNMP host that will accept the traps.The syntax is
similar to configuring a host for polling, except the allurement keyword is used
instead of poll:
PIX1(config)# snmp-server host central 192.168.50.8 trap
NOTE
If you configure an SNMP host after application the poll or allurement keywords,
the SNMP host will be acclimated for both functions.
3. Accredit SNMP traps:
PIX1(config)# snmp-server accredit traps

4. Set the logging akin for SNMP accessories application the logging history command.
For example:
PIX1(config)# logging history errors
5. Start sending accessories to the SNMP administration base application the logging
on command:
PIX1(config)# logging on
To stop SNMP traps, use the no snmp-server accredit accessories command.
