Dell Networking Switch - N2048P
Good morning,
Encountering an issue where SNMP intermittently works, and the only fix seems to be removing and then adding it back. It works for a while, and then it's almost like it's forgetting that there is SNMP enabled or written to the device. I'm running this firmware: N2000Stdv6.7.1.20.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thank you

St8tl355FW,
From what I am seeing, firmware 6.7.1.20 does not list any SNMP-specific fixes or known issues in its release notes However, later firmware versions (6.7.1.22 and 6.7.1.24) do include multiple stability and protocol-related fixes that could indirectly affect SNMP trap behavior. So these updates suggest that firmware 6.7.1.20 could have unresolved SNMP-related bugs, even if not explicitly documented.
So what I would suggest is the following:
Firmware Upgrade
I suggest updating the firmware to the latest version to ensure all recent SNMP and management-related fixes are applied.
Configuration Persistence
After reconfiguring SNMP, please ensure the configuration is saved using the following command:
write memoryThis ensures the settings persist across reboots or service restarts.
Log Review
If the issue recurs after the firmware update, please check the system logs using:
show loggingLook for any entries related to SNMP, management services, or unexpected restarts.
Let me know what you see, and if this helps.

@DELL-Chris H thank you Chris!
What firmware would you suggest?
Write memory was performed.
I do not see any SNMP alerts in the logging.
