Setting Trap Destinations on a 6509/IOS using SNMP

[ferrerek]

Hello,

With a 6509 running CatOS, I am able to set an SNMP Trap Destination on the switch from a management station using the SNMP Set command. On a 6509 running IOS (12.2), I can no longer do this. Does IOS allow trap destinations to be set via SNMP?

- With CatOS, it can be configured with

set snmp trap

set port trap mod/port {enable | disable}

CatOS.

- If the device is running IOS, it can be configured using

snmp-server enable traps

I don't think I was clear enough in my question.

I know that trap destinations can be set using either the CatOS or IOS CLI. My question is whether a trap destination can be set via SNMP on an IOS device.

On a 6509 running CatOS I can send SNMP messages from a remote management station to set a trap destination (the station sends an SNMP SetRequest message with the new trap destination).

When we upgraded to IOS 12.2, I can no longer do this.

Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks,

Ken

Hi,

Is there a possibility of a SNMP version mismatch?

Any idea what is the snmp version the remote management station is using for the SNMP SetRequest message and the version that is running on the IOS device?
