Configuring for Network Management Applications Using SNMP Tools To Manage the Switch Configuring Listening Mode For switches that have a separate out-of-band management port, you can specify whether a configured SNMP server listens for SNMP queries over the out-of-band management interface, the data interface, or both. By default, the switch listens over both interfaces. This option is not available for switches that do not have a separate out-ofband management port. Refer to Appendix G, "Network Out-of-Band Management (OOBM)" in this guide for more information on network out-ofband management. The listening mode is set with parameters to the snmp-server command: Syntax: snmp-server [listen ] Enables or disables inbound SNMP access on a switch. Use the no version of the command to disable inbound SNMP access. The listen parameter is available only on switches that have a separate out-of-band management port. Values for this parameter are: • oobm - inbound SNMP access is enabled only on the out-of-band management port. • data - inbound SNMP access is enabled only on the data ports. • both - inbound SNMP access is enabled on both the out-of-band management port and on the data ports. This is the default value. Refer to Appendix G, "Network Out-of-Band Management" in this guide for more information on out-of-band management. The listen parameter is not available on switches that do not have a separate out-of-band management port. 13-34
