display snmp-agent inform [ address udp-domain ip-address [ vpn-instance vpn-instance-name ] params securityname [ cipher ] security-string ]

Parameters

Parameter Description Value
address Specifies the IP address of the destination host to which SNMP messages are sent. The IP address specified by address and the security name specified by securityname together identify a host. -
udp-domain Specifies that packets are sent to the destination host over UDP. -
ip-address Specifies the IP address of the destination host. The address is in dotted decimal notation.
vpn-instance vpn-instance-name Specifies the name of a VPN instance.

The value is a string of 1 to 31 characters without spaces. This parameter is optional. A group of vpn-instance, address, and securityname identifies a host in a VPN.

params Specifies the host that generates SNMP messages. -
securityname security-string Specifies the security name displayed on the NMS.

The value is a string of 1 to 32 simple text characters or 48 or 68 ciphertext characters, spaces not supported. A string of 32 or 56 ciphertext characters are also supported.

Usage Guidelines

You can run the display snmp-agent inform command to view configurations of informs (trap messages sent in inform mode), including:

  • Number of retransmission occurrences configured for informs globally

  • Timeout period

  • Maximum number of pending informs in the trap queue

  • Number of informs not confirmed in the trap queue

You can also view configurations of informs and packet statistics on a specified destination host, including:

  • Number of retransmission occurrences configured for informs globally

  • Timeout period

  • Number of occurrences informs were retransmitted

  • Pending informs in the trap queue

  • Number of sent informs

  • Number of dropped informs (that is, the number of the informs that are discarded because the trap queue is full)

  • Number of failed informs (that is, the number of informs that are discarded because no ACK message is received)

  • Number of confirmed informs (that is, the number of informs that have been acknowledged by the destination host)

Example

# Display inform parameters configured globally and on a specified destination host.
