Powerconnect 6024 SNMP - invalid setup?

Can not seem to get the switch (PC 6024) to respond to any SNMP queries. Tried all types of community setups.

Anyone have a generic config for SNMP that will work? Here's our show run (ips are public but modified for this post):

snmp-server location anytown
snmp-server community pub2 ro oob/10.1.11.114 view Default type oob
snmp-server community pub3 ro view Default
snmp-server community pub4 ro 10.1.109.254 view Default
snmp-server community-group pub5 pubg
snmp-server group pubg v1 context router read Default
snmp-server group pubg v1 context oob read Default


There are many because I've been trying everything to see if I could get a response.

Here is one that works for me:

snmp-server community private su

Also remember to configure an IP address for the management interface.  Make sure you can at least ping the switch from your server.  The above configuration line works for me.

Maybe if you post your configuration I can see something else.  Try removing everything except the one line similar to the one I posted.  I don't know what else you might have that could cause a problem.  The configuration I show works for me.

the switch works completely otherwise, vlan 1 has the /30 and vlan 2 has our /27 but something simple such as:
snmpwalk -v 1 -c public

returns with "no response" and I tried all of those communities in my original post

so check on the management interface - isn't that only for the oob?

thanks for the reply.

wow that worked (snmpwalk gave me output!) however, it is a read/write community. I'll try setting it read only.

I just negated and re-added with:
snmp-server community private ro view DefaultSuper

and its a go! spent a couple days on this, should have guessed to use the DefaultSuper view, duh

thanks a ton Cuong
