Any user can connect to the switch using the SNMPv3 protocol, but for authentication and encryption, the switch supports only one user which is admin; therefore there is only one profile that can be created or modified.
To configure authentication and encryption settings for the SNMPv3 admin profile by using the Web interface:
1.Navigate to the System > SNMP > SNMPv3 > User Configuration page.
2.To enable authentication, select an Authentication Protocol option, which is either MD5 or SHA.
3.To enable encryption, select the DES option in the Encryption Protocol field. Then, enter an encryption code of eight or more alphanumeric characters in the Encryption Key field.
4.Click Apply.
To access configuration information for SNMPv1 or SNMPv2, click System > SNMP > SNMPv1/v2 and click the page that contains the information to configure.
