Cisco Small Business 300 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide 

•

User Name—Select from the drop-down list the user to whom SNMP 
notifications are sent. In order to receive notifications, this user must be 
defined on the SNMP User page, and its engine ID must be remote.

•

Security Level—Select how much authentication is applied to the packet.

The Security Level here depends on which User Name was 

selected. If this User Name was configured as No Authentication, the 
Security Level is No Authentication only. However, if this User Name has 
assigned Authentication and Privacy on the User page, the security level 
on this screen can be either No Authentication, or Authentication Only, or 
Authentication and Privacy. 

The options are:

-

No Authentication

—Indicates the packet is neither authenticated nor 

encrypted.

-

Authentication

—Indicates the packet is authenticated but not encrypted.

-

Privacy

—Indicates the packet is both authenticated and encrypted.

•

Notification Filter—Select to enable filtering the type of SNMP notifications 
sent to the management station. The filters are created in the Notification 
Filter page.

•

Filter Name—Select the SNMP filter that defines the information contained 
in traps (defined in the Notification Filter page).

Click Apply. The SNMP Notification Recipient settings are written to the Running 
Configuration file.

The Notification Filter page enables configuring SNMP notification filters and 
Object IDs (OIDs) that are checked. After creating a notification filter, it is possible 
to attach it to a notification recipient in the Notification Recipients SNMPv1,2 page, 
and Notification Recipients SNMPv3 page.

The notification filter enables filtering the type of SNMP notifications that are sent 
to the management station based on the OID of the notification to be sent.
