Chapter 10: Configuring SNMPv3

SNMPv3 Tables The SNMPv3 configuration is neatly divided into configuring SNMPv3 user
information and configuring the message notification. You must configure
all seven tables to successfully configure the SNMPv3 protocol. You use
the following tables for user configuration:
ˆ Configure SNMPv3 User Table
ˆ Configure SNMPv3 View Table
ˆ Configure SNMPv3 Access Table
ˆ Configure SNMPv3 Group Table
First, you create a user in the Configure SNMPv3 User Table. Then you
define the MIB view this user has access to in the Configure SNMPv3
View Table. To configure a security group and associate a MIB view to a
security group, you configure the Configure SNMPv3 Access Table.
Finally, configure the Configure SNMPv3 Group menu to associate a user
to a security group. Figure 122 illustrates of how the user configuration
tables are linked.
Figure 122. SNMPv3 User Configuration Process
In general, you focus on configuring security groups and then add and
delete users from the groups as needed. For example, you may want to
have two groups—one for manager privileges and a second one for
operator privileges. Refer to Appendix B, ”SNMPv3 Configuration
Examples” on page 345 for an example of manager and operator
configurations.
