enable

configure terminal
Create a new notify filter table:

snmp-server notify-filter WORD<1-32> WORD<1-32>
Ensure that the configuration is correct:

Variable Definitions

The following table defines parameters for the snmp-server notify-filter command.


Variable	Value
`WORD<1-32> WORD<1-32>`	Creates a notify filter table. The first instance of `WORD<1-32>` specifies the name of the filter profile with a string length of 1–32. The second instance of `WORD<1-32>` identifies the filter subtree OID with a string length of 1–32. If the subtree OID parameter uses a plus sign (+) prefix (or no prefix), this indicates include. If the subtree OID uses the minus sign ( – ) prefix, it indicates exclude. You do not calculate the mask because it is automatically calculated. You can use the wildcard character, the asterisk (*), to specify the mask within the OID. You do not need to specify the OID in the dotted decimal format; you can alternatively specify that the MIB parameter names and the OIDs are automatically calculated.
