The snmp-server community command is used to initialise SNMP. For example to define the read-only string to public:

(config)# snmp-server community public RO

or for read-write access use RW instead of RO (the other options can be viewed using the command snmp-server community public ?). The community access string (in this case, public) acts as a password for the access to the SNMP information. To setup the SNMP contact:

(config)# snmp-server contact fred smith

and to set the location:

(config)# snmp-server location room c27

To enable SNMP traps so that all the data is monitored:

(config)# snmp-server enable traps

To determine the avialable traps the snmp-server enable traps ? can be used.
