SNMP Support for VLAN Subinterfaces

This feature module describes the SNMP Support for VLAN Subinterfaces feature. It includes information on the benefits of the new feature, supported platforms, supported standards, and the commands necessary to configure the SNMP Support for VLAN Subinterfaces feature.

The SNMP Support for VLAN Subinterfaces feature provides mib-2 interfaces sparse table support for Fast Ethernet subinterfaces. This enhancement is similar to the functionality supported in Frame Relay subinterfaces.

How to SNMP Support for VLAN Subinterfaces

Enabling the SNMP Agent on VLAN Subinterfaces

Perform the following task to enable the SNMP agent on VLAN subinterfaces.

SUMMARY STEPS

    1.    enable

    2.    configure terminal

    3.    snmp community string

    4.    interface type slot/port

    5.    encapsulation isl vlan-identifier

    6.    ip address ip-address mask

    7.    end

    8.    show vlans


DETAILED STEPS
     Command or ActionPurpose
    Step 1 enable


    Example:
    Router> enable
     

    Enables privileged EXEC mode.

    • Enter your password if prompted.

     
    Step 2 configure terminal


    Example:
    Router# configure terminal
     

    Enters global configuration mode.

     
    Step 3 snmp community string


    Example:
    Router(config)# snmp community public
     

    Enables the SNMP agent for remote access.

     
    Step 4 interface type slot/port


    Example:
    Router(config)# interface FastEthernet 0/1.1
     

    Selects a particular Fast Ethernet interface for configuration.

     
    Step 5 encapsulation isl vlan-identifier


    Example:
    Router(config-if)#  encapsulation isl 10
     

    Enables the Inter-Switch Link.

     
    Step 6 ip address ip-address mask


    Example:
    Router(config)# ip address 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0
     

    Sets a primary or secondary IP address for an interface.

     
    Step 7 end


    Example:
    Router(config-if)# end
     

    Returns to privileged EXEC mode.

     
    Step 8 show vlans


    Example:
    Router# show vlans
     

    Displays VLAN subinterfaces.

     

    Configuration Examples for SNMP Support for VLAN Subinterfaces

    Example Enabling the SNMP Agent for VLAN Subinterfaces

    The following configuration example shows you how to enable the SNMP agent on the router with VLAN subinterfaces to monitor the SNMP application remotely:

    snmp community public
    !
    interface FastEthernet4/0.100
     encapsulation isl 100
     ip address 192.168.10.21 255.255.255.0
    !
    interface FastEthernet4/0.200
     encapsulation isl 200
     ip address 172.21.200.11 255.255.255.0
    !
    interface FastEthernet4/1.1
     encapsulation isl 10
     ip address 171.69.2.111 255.255.255.0
