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.
6. Click Apply to save any changes to the SNMP Access screen. Navigating away from the screen
without clicking the Apply button results in all changes to the screen being lost.
7. Click Undo Changes (if necessary) to undo any changes made. Undo Changes reverts the
settings displayed on the SNMP Access screen to the last saved configuration.
8. Click Logout to securely exit the Mobility 7131 Access Point Access Point applet. A prompt
displays confirming the logout before the applet is closed.
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 Mobility 7131 Access Point
information, while read/write access allows a user to modify
Mobility 7131 Access
Point
settings.
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.
For detailed instructions of configuring SNMP user access and modification
privileges, see Configuring SNMP Access Control on page 4-92.
SNMP v3 Engine ID The Mobility 7131 Access Point SNMP v3 Engine ID field lists the unique SNMP
v3 Engine ID for the Mobility 7131 Access Point. This ID is used in SNMP v3 as the
source for a trap, response or report. It is also used as the destination ID when
sending get, getnext, getbulk, set or inform commands.
