Hello,
Have to give a demo tomorrow - switch has been power cycled and lost its IP and also the config for snmp agent. Managed to hack around and IP has come back . It only listening on port 23 and 80 tho. Please how to enable agent? So a mib-browser can walk the tree.
TIA
Syd
The most basic would be
snmp-server community mycommunity
thanks. snmp-server seems to be missing!

strange! Any obvious explanation? TIA
Yes, its a configuration, not a command. You type commands into the basic prompt. You type configurations in config mode (ie. config term).
Umm, you were trying to type in a configuration in at the command promptÂ?
But, as your config shows, you already have SNMP configured and running on the box.
yes I was trying to type a config in at the command prompt -silly me! It might be up and running but I dont get any response from a mib browser - and the only ports that are said to be open with an nmap scan are 23 and 80. Please any suggestions on what to do next?

You might have an interface access-list blocking the traffic. You *have* access lists 2 and 3 configured for some of your community strings.
Have you tried the community string - public
You will need routing configured for your traffic. Start with the basics:-) Can you ping or otherwise communicate with the router?
You might try debug snmp requests debug snmp packets to see if the traffic is reaching the router - and more.
Thanks ! It works now - I set the community string to public and it works. No sure why tho. Thanks again!
The other community strings you listed have access restrictions by client ip address - if access-lists "2" or "3" are defined.
snmp-server community xxxxx RW 2 snmp-server community xxxx RO 3
sh access-list
will list them, or of course they will be in the config.
