CAUTION: The 3.x version WS5100 switch uses 3 unique (default) SNMPv3 user names
and passwords for MD5 authentication and DES privacy. If upgrading your configuration
from a 1.4.x or 2.x baseline, you will need to change your SNMPv3 usernames and
passwords to ensure SNMPv3 interoperation.
The unique SNMPv3 usernames and passwords include:

username = snmpoperator/password = operator
username = snmpmanager/password = symboladmin
username = snmptrap/password = symboladmin

User Name

Displays a read-only SNMP v3 username of operator or Admin. Operator typically has an
Access Control of read-only and Admin typically has an Access Control of read/write.

Access Control

allows the user (when active) to retrieve information, while read/write access grants the user
modification privileges.

Authentication

the

Edit

button to modify the password required to change the authentication keys.

access to the switch. Click the

Edit

button to modify the password required to change the

encryption keys.

Status
