Specifying the Type of Service for SNMP Packets
Using the BCC, you can specify the type of service in which SNMP packets will
be generated by setting the type of service to either reliability or normal. For
SNMP, high-reliability type of service is important.
By default, the type of service is set to reliability. To specify the type of service,
navigate to the SNMP prompt (for example,
box; snmp
) and enter:
type-of-service
{
reliability
|
normal
}
For example, the following command causes SNMP to generate packets with a
type of service of reliability:
snmp#
type-of-service reliability
snmp#
Adding SNMP Communities
An SNMP community is a logical relationship between an SNMP agent and one or
more SNMP managers. The community has a name, and all members of a
community have the same access privileges: either read-only (members can view
configuration and performance information) or read-write (members can view
configuration performance information, and also change the configuration).
This section describes how to add and delete the SNMP communities to which the
SNMP agent responds or sends traps.
Specifying an SNMP Community Name
You can add SNMP communities by specifying the name of the community. The
community name can consist of up to 63 characters, including embedded spaces.
Using the BCC
To create a community name, navigate to the SNMP prompt (for example,
box;
snmp
) and enter:
community
<name>
name
is any string of printable ASCII characters, up to 63 characters in length,
including embedded spaces.
