The privileges assigned to the default strings can be modified or new communities with custom privileges can be created.

5.2.1 Creating a View

The following command describes how to set a view entry. A view defines and restricts the MIB attributes that a particular community can access. The view entry and the community entry are set to factory defaults. Users should consult with the Cisco TAC before modifying these settings.

5.2.1.1 Set View Entry

Command

snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaViewEntry

 

snmp row set local cerent15216EdfaViewEntry view_index_# subtree

Syntax Description

 

To create a community entry, a view must first be created. A MIB view can restrict the MIBs that a

 

particular community can access. To create a view, type the command. view_index_# is an integer (1 to

 

2048) assigned to this view entry and subtree is the MIB subtree to which this view applies. Multiple

 

view entries can be used for each view index.

 

This command creates a new row in the ViewEntry table. The SNMP manager prompts the user for each

 

attribute.

 

 

To display a list of possible values, press the Spacebar followed by the Tab key. (See Example 5-3.)
