Blade ICE G8000 manual User configuration

RackSwitch G8000 Application Guide

To configure an SNMP user name, enter the following command:

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server user <1-16>name <1-32>

User configuration:

Users can be configured to use the authentication/privacy options. The G8000 supports two authentication algorithms: MD5 and SHA, as specified in the following command:

snmp-server user <1-16>authentication-protocol md5sha

1.To configure a user with name 'admin,' authentication type MD5, and authentication password of 'admin,' privacy option DES with privacy password of 'admin,' use the fol- lowing CLI commands.

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server user 5 name admin

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server user 5 authentication-protocol md5 authentication-password

Changing authentication password; validation required:

Enter current admin password:	<admin. password>
Enter new authentication password:	<auth. password>
Re-enter new authentication password:	<auth. password>
New authentication password accepted.
RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server user 5 privacy-protocol des
privacy-password
Changing privacy password; validation required:
Enter current admin password:	<admin. password>
Enter new privacy password:	<privacy password>
Re-enter new privacy password:	<privacy password>
New privacy password accepted.

2.Configure a user access group, along with the views the group may access. Use the access table to configure the group’s access level.

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server access 5 name admingrp

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server access 5 level authpriv

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server access 5 read-view iso

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server access 5 write-view iso

RS G8000 (config)# snmp-server access 5 notify-view iso

Because the read view, write view, and notify view are all set to “iso,” the user type has access to all private and public MIBs.
