SNMP procedures
Configuring SNMPv1/v2 on the SKM
The SKM supports all three versions of SNMP. From a configuration standpoint, SNMPv1/v2 are treated
as a unit, and SNMPv3 is treated separately. Please note that HP SNMP agent is capable of providing
the following SNMP functionality:
•
it enables the NMS to access the MIBs on the SKM.
•
it initiates trap messages to the NMS.
You can configure the HP SNMP agent to provide either piece of functionality or both pieces. Both pieces
of functionality are optional.
To configure an HP agent to communicate with an NMS running SNMPv1/v2 software, there are three
basic steps:
1.
Configure the agent at the SNMP Agent Settings section.
2.
Create a community at the SNMPv1/SNMPv2 Community List section to enable the NMS to access
the Enterprise MIBs.
3.
Define an NMS at the Create SNMP Management Station section if you want the SKM to initiate trap
messages to the NMS. You only have to provide values for the first five fields in the Create SNMP
Management Station section. The fields that are used for SNMPv3 are clearly marked with as v3 only.
Configuring SNMPv3 on the SKM
The SKM supports all three versions of SNMP. From a configuration standpoint, SNMPv1/v2 are treated
as a unit, and SNMPv3 is treated separately. Please note that HP SNMP agent is capable of providing

You can configure the HP SNMP agent to provide either piece of functionality or both pieces. Both pieces

To configure an HP agent to communicate with an NMS running SNMPv3 software, there are three
basic steps:
1.
Configure the agent at the SNMP Agent Settings section.
2.
Create an SNMPv3 username at the SNMPv3 Username List section to enable the NMS to access
the Enterprise MIBs.

trap messages to the NMS. The fields required for defining an SNMPv3 NMS depend on the
combination of authorization and privacy you choose.
