Configure the SNMP Bind Address

By default, SystemEDGE binds to all interfaces (*/UDP-161). You can bind the agent to a specific interface by using the bind_address parameter in the sysedge.cf file as follows:

bind_address <address>
address

Specifies a particular interface for the agent to bind to. This value can be an IPv4 or IPv6 address.

Examples

Entering the following line in the sysedge.cf file binds to the 10.1.0.202 address only:

bind_address 10.1.0.202

Entering the following line in the sysedge.cf file binds to the ea2f:fe90:abcd:0000:230:a2f:200:ad01 address only:

bind_address ea2f:fe90:abcd:0000:230:a2f:200:ad01
