 SNMP Configurations Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Step 7 snmp-server engineID {[ local local-engineID] [remote remote-engineID]} Configure the local engine ID and the remote engine ID. local-engineID: Enter the engine ID of the local SNMP agent (the switch) with 10 to 64 hexadecimal digits. A valid engine ID must contain an even number of characters. By default, the switch generates the engine ID using TP-Link's enterprise number (80002e5703) and its own MAC address. The local engine ID is a unique alphanumeric string used to identify the SNMP engine. As an SNMP agent contains only one SNMP engine, the local engine ID can uniquely identify the SNMP agent. remote-engineID: Enter the remote engine ID with 10 to 64 hexadecimal digits. A valid engine ID must contain an even number of characters. The remote engine ID is a unique alphanumeric string. It is used to identify the SNMP engine on the remote device that receives inform messages from switch. Note: In SNMPv3, changing the value of the SNMP engine ID has important side effects. A user's password is converted to an MD5 or SHA security digest based on the password itself and the engine ID. If the value of local engine ID changes, the switch will automatically delete all SNMPv3 local users as their security digests become invalid. Similarly, all SNMPv3 remote users will be deleted if the value of remote engine ID changes. show snmp-server Displays the global settings of SNMP. show smnp-server engineID Displays the engine ID of SNMP. end Return to Privileged EXEC Mode. copy running-config startup-config Save the settings in the configuration file. The following example shows how to enable SNMP and set 123456789a as the remote engine ID: Switch#configure Switch(config)#snmp-server Switch(config)#snmp-server engineID remote 123456789a Switch(config)#show snmp-server SNMP agent is enabled. 0 SNMP packets input 0 Bad SNMP version errors User Guide 764
