Configuring the SNMP Agent

To configure trap forwarding, follow these general steps:

1. Set the SNMP global mode as needed.

   See SNMP Global Mode.

   If the SNMPv1 ONLY mode is set, skip to step 5.

   Note: SNMPv1 provides no authentication and no privacy.
2. Configure SNMPv3 views.

   See SNMPv3 Access View Management.

3. Configure one or more SNMPv3 groups that use the SNMPv3 views.

   See SNMPv3 Group Management.

4. Configure SNMPv3 users associated with the SNMPv3 groups.

   See SNMPv3 User Management.

5. Configure the NMS on LSMS.

   See NMS Configuration.

6. Configure the NMS.

   To see what was configured in step 5, use SNMP Configuration > NMS Configuration > Show.
