Host Configuration
SNMP hosts provide an additional level of SNMP access control used
in verifying SNMP permissions. For get and set operations, the agent
verifies that the SNMP management station is in the host list. The list
is also used to determine which management stations receive traps.
As a configuration option, you can add up to eight IP addresses of
network management stations where traps are specifically sent.
