NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Example The following command enables the generation and processing of DHCP packets on a VLAN named accounting: enable dhcp vlan accounting enable snmp access enable snmp access {snmp-v1v2c | snmpv3} Description Selectively enables SNMP access on the switch. Syntax Description snmp-v1v2c snmpv3 Specifies SNMPv1/v2c access only. Specifies SNMPv3 access only. Default Enabled. Usage Guidelines To have access to the SNMP agent residing in the switch, at least one VLAN must have an IP address assigned to it. Any network manager running SNMP can manage the switch for v1/v2c/v3, provided the MIB is installed correctly on the management station. Each network manager provides its own user interface to the management facilities. For SNMPv3, additional security keys are used to control access, so an SNMPv3 manager is required for this type of access. This command allows you to enable either all SNMP access, no SNMP access, v1/v2c access only, or v3 access only. To prevent any SNMP access, use the following command: disable snmp access {snmp-v1v2c | snmpv3} The 8800 OS introduced the concept of safe defaults mode. Safe defaults mode runs an interactive script that allows you to enable or disable SNMP, Telnet, and switch ports. When you set up your switch for the first time, you must connect to the console port to access the switch. After logging in to the switch, you enter safe defaults mode. Although SNMP, Telnet, and switch ports are enabled by default, the script prompts you to confirm those settings. If you choose to keep the default setting for SNMP-the default setting is enabled-the switch returns the following interactive script: 104 | Chapter 3. Commands for Managing the Switch
