144CHAPTER 7: CONFIGURING SNMP

To set the minimum level of security MSS requires for SNMP, use the following command:

set snmp security {unsecured authenticated encrypted auth-req-unsec-notify}

You can specify one of the following options:

„unsecured—SNMP message exchanges are not secure. This is the default, and is the only value supported for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c. (This security level is the same as the noAuthNoPriv level described in SNMPv3 RFCs.)

„authenticated—SNMP message exchanges are authenticated but are not encrypted. (This security level is the same as the authNoPriv level described in SNMPv3 RFCs.)

„encrypted—SNMP message exchanges are authenticated and encrypted. (This security level is the same as the authPriv level described in SNMPv3 RFCs.)

„auth-req-unsec-notify—SNMP message exchanges are authenticated but are not encrypted, and notifications are neither authenticated nor encrypted.

Command Example The following command sets the minimum level of SNMP security allowed to authentication and encryption:

WX1200# set snmp security encrypted success: change accepted.

Configuring a A notification profile is a named list of all the notification types that can Notification Profile be generated by a switch, and for each notification type, the action to

take (drop or send) when an event occurs.

A default notification profile (named default) is already configured in MSS. All notifications in the default profile are dropped by default. You can configure up to 10 notification profiles.

To modify the default notification profile or create a new one, use the following command:

set snmp notify profile {default profile-name} {drop send} {notification-typeall}

To clear a notification profile, use the following command:

clear snmp notify profile profile-name
