I need to enable SNMP on my Catalyst.  I've found 3 SNMP commands, and
need to know which/how to use them:

 

Snmp-server enable traps - Is this the command to enable SNMP?  How do I
use this generically, to simply turn snmp on so that my network
monitoring tool can identify the box, and monitor the ports?

 

Snmp-server host - Do I need to specify the machine that's going to be
doing snmp queries, or can I just leave it open?  Is it dangerous not to
specify a host?

 

Snmp-server community - self explanatory, to set the community string,
with the access rights.

 

 

>From what I'm reading in the Command Reference, it appears that I want
to use the snmp-server host command, specify the specific host, and
leave it at that.  Is that the "approved" method?
