Configuring SNMP settings
4
3. Configure the SNMP v3 User Definitions field (if SNMP v3 is used) to add and configure SNMP
v3 user definitions.
SNMP v3 user definitions allow read-only or read/write access to management information as
appropriate.
4. Specify the users who can read and optionally modify the SNMP-capable client.
5. If configuring SNMP v3 user definitions, set the SNMP v3 engine ID.
Add
Click Add to create a new entry for an SNMP v3 user.
Delete
Select Delete to remove an entry for an SNMP v3 user.
Username
Specify a username by typing an alphanumeric string of up to 31
characters.
Security Level
Use the Security Level area to specify a security level of noAuth (no
authorization), AuthNoPriv (authorization without privacy), or
AuthPriv (authorization with privacy).
The NoAuth setting specifies no login authorization or encryption
for the user.
The AuthNoPriv setting requires login authorization, but no
encryption.
The AuthPriv setting requires login authorization and uses the
Data Encryption Standard (DES) protocol.
OID
Use the OID (Object Identifier) area to specify a setting of All or
enter a Custom OID. Select All to assign the user access to all OIDs
in the MIB. The OID field uses numbers expressed in dot notation.
Passwords
Select Passwords to display the Password Settings screen for
specifying authentication and password settings for an SNMP v3
user. The maximum password length is 11 characters. Use the
Authentication Algorithm drop-down menu to specify MD5 or SHA1
as the authentication algorithm. Use the Privacy Algorithm
drop-down menu to define an algorithm of DES or AES-128bit.
When entering the same username on the SNMP Traps and SNMP
Access screens, the password entered on the SNMP Traps page
overwrites the password entered on the SNMP Access page. To
avoid this problem, enter the same password on both pages.
Access
Use the Access pull-down list to specify read-only (R) access or
read/write (RW) access for a user. Read-only access permits a
user to retrieve Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Point
information, while read/write access allows a user to modify
Brocade Mobility 7131N-FGR Access Pointsettings.
SNMP Access Control
Click the SNMP Access Control button to display the SNMP Access
Control screen for specifying which users can read
SNMP-generated information and potentially modify related
settings from an SNMP-capable client.
The SNMP Access Control screen's Access Control List (ACL) uses
Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to restrict access to the AP’s
SNMP interface. The ACL applies to both SNMP v3 user definitions
and SNMP v1/v2c community definitions.
