7.3 Configuring SNMP Access

The SNMP Access menu allows you to view and configure existing SNMP v1/v2 and SNMP v3 details and
their current access control settings. You can also view the SNMP V2/V3 events and their current values. The
SNMP Access window consists of the following tabs:

Configuring SNMP v1/v2 Access

Configuring SNMP v3 Access

Accessing SNMP v2/v3 Statistics

Enable FTP

Select this checkbox to enable FTP access to the switch. File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is the
language used for file transfers across the Web. This setting is disabled by default.

Port

Displays the port number used for the FTP session with the switch (if using FTP).

Username

Displays the read-only name of the user whose credentials are used for the FTP session.

Password

If FTP is enabled, a password is required (for the user specified in the

Username

field) to

use the switch with the FTP interface.

Root Dir.

Define the root directory where the FTP server is located (if using FTP). Click the Magnifying
Glass icon to display a Select Directory File screen useful in selecting the root directory. If
necessary a new directory folder can be created.

Enable SSH

Select this checkbox to enable SSH access to the switch. Secure Shell (SSH) is a program
designed to perform a number of functions, such as file transfer between computers,
command execution or logging on to a computer over a network. It is intended to do these
tasks with greater security than programs such as Telnet or FTP. This setting is enabled by
default.

Port

Define the port number used for the SSH session with the switch.

RSA Key Pair

Use the

RSA Key Pair

drop-down menu to select a public/private key pair used for RSA

authentication. The default setting is “default_ssh_rsa_key”

NOTE: You cannot establish a SSH session with the switch when a RSA Key with a length
of 360 is associated with the SSH-Server.

CAUTION: Your system must be running Sun JRE version 1.5.x (or higher) or Mozilla in
order for the switch Web UI to be used with the SNMP interface.

NOTE: The SNMP facility cannot retrieve a configuration file directly from its SNMP
interface. You must first deposit the configuration file to a computer, then FTP the file to
the switch.
