Table 104 Create SNMP Management Station section components
Description Component
The SNMP version used on the NMS. All three versions of SNMP are supported on the
SKM.
Manager Type
Specifies whether this NMS is configured to receive Trap or Inform messages.
NOTE:
We recommend that you always use Inform messages.
Trap Type
The hostname or IP address of the NMS. Hostname or IP
Port on which the NMS is listening for SNMP traffic. The default is 162. Port
Name that is used to send SNMP data to SNMPv1/v2 management stations. The
manager community is used by SNMPv1/v2 management stations to filter SNMP traps
and is not related to the agent community name. The Manager Community name cannot
exceed 64 characters.
Manager Com-
munity (v1/v2)
Name that is used to send SNMP data to SNMPv3 management stations. The username
is used to create a key that is shared by the agent and the NMS.
Username (v3 only)
You have three choices for the security level
• auth, priv – authorization and privacy. This option takes full advantage of the en-
hanced security features in SNMPv3. This option means that the SKM is authenticated
by the NMS when the SKM sends a trap; in addition, all data exchanged between
the HP agent and the NMS is encrypted using the DES algorithm and a secret key.
• auth, no priv – authorization, no privacy. This option allows you to specify that the
SKM is authenticated by the NMS, but data that is exchanged between the agent
and NMS is unencrypted.
• no auth, no priv – no authorization, no privacy. This option is similar to the security
offered in SNMPv1/v2. No encryption is performed, and the authenticity of the
sender of the SNMP message is not be guaranteed.
Security Level (v3
only)
