I believe it has to do with the MIB's, but considering Catalyst > 5000 switches, what can you do with SNMP read-only and what requires > read-write. nothing special behind those concepts, it just is what it says, read-only and -read-write access. there are some snmp-operations with which you can for example configure a device - this would need read-write access. > Also, if I want to only monitor the network from a NMS, is SNMP > read-only sufficient or do I also have to enable some traps. Can I have SNMP > read-only without any traps being enabled? traps are a different question from the read/read-write question. it depends on what functionality you want from the network management software. for almost all things read-only access is sufficient. on the question of traps: I found most things traps can do, syslog-messages can do as well. > Any help would be appreciated. > > Thanks. > > Joe Quezada Cheers Georg Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=31947&t=31926 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
