Command Usage
•Up to ten SNMPv3 users can be configured on the access point.
•The SNMP engine ID is used to compute the authentication/privacy digests from the pass phrase. You should therefore configure the engine ID with the snmp‐server engine‐id command before using this configuration command.
•The access point enables SNMP v3 users to be assigned to three pre‐defined groups. Other groups cannot be defined. The available groups are:
–RO ‐ A read‐only group using no authentication and no data encryption. Users in this group use no security, either authentication or encryption, in SNMP messages they send to the agent. This is the same as SNMP v1 or SNMP v2c.
–RWAuth ‐ A read/write group using authentication, but no data encryption. Users in this group send SNMP messages that use an MD5 key/password for authentication, but not a DES key/password for encryption.
–RWPriv ‐ A read/write group using authentication and data encryption. Users in this group send SNMP messages that use an MD5 key/password for authentication and a DES key/password for encryption. Both the MD5 and DES key/passwords must be defined.
Note: If you are going to use Group Lists, you must set up the Groups before adding the SNMP users.
•Users must be assigned to groups that have the same security levels. If a user who has “AuthPriv” security (uses authentication and encryption) is assigned to a read‐only (RO) group, the user will not be able to access the database. An AuthPriv user must be assigned to the RWPriv group with the AuthPriv security level.
