Just the man I was hoping to hear from :-P

We do have a TAC case opened on this, waiting to hear back from 
Jesse/Nate, who are waiting to hear from the engineers (is what what you 
are?), but it seemed like something that someone on here might have 
encountered. 

We used to be inline, just moved out of band a few days ago.   When we 
add the switch, it reads the mac, snmp location and contact information, 
so it seems like its communicating fine.  Also, the switch can ping the 
manager and vice versa.

We are running 4.0.2 and 12.2(25)FX on a C2960-LANBASE-M.  System image 
file is 
"flash:c2960-lanbase-mz.122-25.FX/c2960-lanbase-mz.122-25.FX.bin".  The 
image is stock from the vendor, we didnt upgrade it.

When we add the switch, it brings us to the page where it shows the port 
status, and it does read the vlan and whether or not the port is linked 
properly.  I know it sounds like I'm saying "read" alot, which could 
mean an issue with the RW community, but I swear I have it right. 

As per your suggestion, i tried swapping it to "link notification".  
When I  add the switch, it doesnt throw an error with that mib anymore, 
but when I hit "save configuration", it says "failed to save the running 
configuration."

The error it spits back is:
[Failure] Error:"No SNMP respone [1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.215.1.1.5.0]."

I looked that up, and it looks like the mac-notification, but i dont see 
the MIB on my cam.  I tried snagging it from cisco and dropping it into 
the dir and restarting snmpd, but no luck.  

Here are our SNMP settings for the switch:

snmp-server community rwcommunity RW
snmp-server community rocommunity RO
snmp-server location BillHall
snmp-server contact my_boss
snmp-server enable traps snmp authentication linkdown linkup coldstart 
warmstart
snmp-server enable traps tty
snmp-server enable traps cluster
snmp-server enable traps entity
snmp-server enable traps cpu threshold
snmp-server enable traps rtr
snmp-server enable traps vtp
snmp-server enable traps vlancreate
snmp-server enable traps vlandelete
snmp-server enable traps flash insertion removal
snmp-server enable traps port-security
snmp-server enable traps envmon
snmp-server enable traps MAC-Notification
snmp-server enable traps copy-config
snmp-server enable traps config
snmp-server enable traps bridge newroot topologychange
snmp-server enable traps stpx inconsistency root-inconsistency 
loop-inconsistency
snmp-server enable traps syslog
snmp-server enable traps vlan-membership
snmp-server host CAM_IP version 2c rwcommunity cluster vtp vlancreate 
vlandelete port-security MAC-Notification copy-config config 
vlan-membership snmp
!

Certainly not ruling out the possibility that its a RW issue.  OK, so 
question - in the profiles view there is snmp v1, 2, and 3.  How do I 
know which one it's going to try?  I tried putting my password in v1 
then hitting "save config" to copy ru st, that failed.  Tried the same 
thing with v2, and that failed also. 

I get that a trap sends from the switch to the server, and that what 
we're trying to do is have the server talk to the switch.  I'd assume 
that just happens through the RW community.  Also, 162 on the CAM is 
closed, not open, but I don't know if thats expected behavior or not.

Any thoughts?
