HP Secure Key Manager - Manual (Page 212)

This page contains the following sections:
• SNMP Agent Settings – Changes to the SNMP Agent Settings section apply to all management
stations, usernames and communities defined on the SKM.
• SNMPv1/SNMPv2 Community List – This section of the SNMP configuration page is where you
define from which SNMPv1/v2 management stations the SKM receives SNMP MIB requests.
• SNMPv3 Username List – The SNMPv3 Username List defines from which SNMPv3 management
stations the SKM receives SNMP MIB requests. Because SNMPv3 offers authentication and privacy,
there is more to configure when creating an SNMPv3 Username as opposed to a community.
• SNMP Management Station List – This section lists the management stations defined on the SKM.
• Create SNMP Management Station – The Create SNMP Management Station section is where
you configure outbound SNMP traffic on the SKM. Whereas creating usernames and communities
is particular to a specific version of SNMP, management stations are common to all three version
of SNMP. This section is where you define which management stations that the agent sends traps
to.
SNMP Agent Settings
The SNMP Agent Settings section controls whether SNMP traps are enabled on the SKM, the IP
address on which SNMP in enabled, and the port on which the SKM listens for requests from the
NMS. Changes to the SNMP Agent Settings section apply to all other SNMP settings defined on the
SKM.
Figure 118 Viewing the SNMP Agent Settings section
The following table describes the components of the SNMP Agent Settings section.
Table 99 SNMP Agent Settings section components
Description Component
This field specifies the IP address on which SNMP is enabled. You can select “All” or
an individual IP address. We recommend that you specify an individual IP address.
SNMP Agent IP
This value specifies the port on which the SKM listens to requests from the NMS. The
default is 161.
SNMP Agent Port
By default, the SKM does not send SNMP traps. To enable the sending of SNMP traps,
check the Enable SNMP Traps box.

SNMPv1/SNMPv2 Community List
As the name suggests, the SNMPv1/SNMPv2 Community List is used to configure the agent to
communicate with an NMS running either SNMPv1 or SNMPv2 software. You can think of this section
of the Communities & Usernames tab as the place where you define from which SNMPv1/v2
management stations the SKM receives SNMP MIB requests. Use this section to add, edit, or delete
a community on the SKM.
