09/10/2024 Contributors

The show allSnmpCommunities command returns information about the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) communities defined for the storage array. SNMP communities are collections of devices, such as routers, switches, printers, storage devices, grouped together to manage and monitor the devices.

Supported Arrays

This command applies to an individual E4000, E2800, E5700, EF600 or EF300 storage array. It does not operate on E2700 or E5600 storage arrays.

Roles

To execute this command on an E4000, E2800, E5700, EF600, or EF300 storage array, you must have the Storage Admin or Support Admin or Storage Monitor role.

Context

Information returned includes the following:

The total number of communities
The total number of trap destinations
The names of the SNMP communities

Syntax

show (allSnmpCommunities |
snmpCommunity communityName="snmpCommunityName" |
snmpCommunities [snmpCommunityName1 ... snmpCommunityNameN])
[summary]

Parameters

Parameter Description

Parameter	Description

Notes

SNMP supports one or more communities to which managers and managed devices belong. SNMP requests contain a community string in the data packets passed over the network that acts as a crude password. SNMP agents can reject GET or SET requests with an unrecognized community string. A community string is also included in TRAP notifications sent from agent to manager as well.

The embedded SNMP agent supports both IPV4 and IPV6.

This command returns SNMP community information similar to this example.
