This command adds a user to an SNMP group, restricting the user to a specific SNMP Read and a Write View. Use the no form to remove a user from an SNMP group.

Syntax

snmp-server user username groupname [remote ip-address] {v1 v2c v3 [encrypted] [auth {md5 sha} auth-password[priv des56 priv-password]]

no snmp-server user username {v1 v2c v3 remote}

username - Name of user connecting to the SNMP agent. (Range: 1-32 characters)

groupname - Name of an SNMP group to which the user is assigned. (Range: 1-32 characters)

remote - Specifies an SNMP engine on a remote device.

ip-address- The Internet address of the remote device.

v1 v2c v3 - Use SNMP version 1, 2c or 3.

encrypted - Accepts the password as encrypted input.

auth - Uses SNMPv3 with authentication.

md5 sha - Uses MD5 or SHA authentication.

auth-password- Authentication password. Enter as plain text if the encrypted option is not used. Otherwise, enter an encrypted password. (A minimum of eight characters is required.)

priv des56 - Uses SNMPv3 with 56-bit DES data encryption.

priv-password- Privacy password. Enter as plain text if the encrypted option is not used. Otherwise, enter an encrypted password.

Default Setting

None

Command Mode
