RuggedRouter™ User Guide

Figure 222: Access Control page, SNMP V3

The second part of the Access control menu allows creation and deletion of V3 users. The User Name field selects the name of the new user.

The Access field determines whether the community is read-only or read/write.

The Minimum Security field selects the level of security used by this user. It may be No Authentication (no authentication or encryption), Authentication Only (authentication by MD5 or SHA1 authentication methods, no encryption) or Authentication with Privacy ( authentication by MD5 or SHA1, encryption by DES or AES ciphers).

The OID field further restricts access to an Object Identifier (OID) tree at or below a specified OID.

The Authentication Protocol, Authentication Passphrase, Privacy Protocol and Privacy Passphrase fields configure the protocols and passphrases used depending on the Minimum Security field. These settings are shared between agent and remote user.

Note that if authentication and privacy are both used, but only the authentication passphrase is provided, snmpd will use the authentication passphrase as the privacy passphrase.

Note also that if any notifications are enabled, a read-only user named internal will be automatically created to satisfy the requirements of the event MIB.
