user resides. The remote engine ID is used to compute the security digest for authenticating and encrypting packets sent to a user on the remote host.

Command Attributes

User Name – The name of user connecting to the SNMP agent. (Range: 1-32 characters)

Group Name – The name of the SNMP group to which the user is assigned. (Range: 1-32 characters)

Engine ID – The engine identifier for the SNMP agent on the remote device where the remote user resides. Note that the remote engine identifier must be specified before you configure a remote user. (See “Specifying a Remote Engine ID” on page 44.)

Model – The user security model; SNMP v1, v2c or v3.

Level – The security level used for the user:

-noAuthNoPriv – There is no authentication or encryption used in SNMP communications. (This is the default for SNMPv3.)

-AuthNoPriv – SNMP communications use authentication, but the data is not encrypted (only available for the SNMPv3 security model).

-AuthPriv – SNMP communications use both authentication and encryption (only available for the SNMPv3 security model).

Authentication – The method used for user authentication. (Options: MD5, SHA; Default: MD5)

Privacy – The encryption algorithm use for data privacy; only 56-bit DES is currently available.

Web – Click SNMP, SNMPv3, Remote Users. Click New to configure a user name. In the New User page, define a name and assign it to a group, then click Add to save the configuration and return to the User Name list. To delete a user, check the box next to the user name, then click Delete.

Configuring SNMPv3 Groups

An SNMPv3 group sets the access policy for its assigned users, restricting them to specific read, write, and notify views. You can use the pre-defined default groups or create new groups to map a set of SNMP users to SNMP views.
