Note
In the case of SNMPv3 trap notifications, the SNMP manager is expected to know the user credentials
(authKey/PrivKey) based on the switch's engineID to authenticate and decrypt the SNMP messages.
Enabling SNMP Notifications
Notifications (Traps and Informs) are system alerts that the switch generates when certain events occur.
As of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 2.1(1a) , you can enable or disable notifications. By default, no
notification is defined or issued. If a notification name, is not specified all notifications are disabled or
enabled.
