Configure SNMPv3 View Table Menu. For example, the Read View allows
group members to view the specified portion of the OID MIB table. The
Write View allows group members to write to, or modify, the MIBs in the
specified MIB view. The Notify View allows group members to send trap
messages defined by the MIB view. Lastly, you can configure a storage
type for this table entry which allows you to save this view to flash
memory.

SNMPv3 SecurityToGroup Table

The Configure SNMPv3 SecurityToGroup Table Menu allows you to
associate a User Name with a security group called a Group Name. The
User Name is previously configured with the Configure SNMPv3 User
Table Menu. The security group is previously configured with the
Configure SNMPv3 Access Table Menu. Lastly, you can configure a
storage type for this table entry which allows you to save the entry to flash
memory.

SNMPv3 Notify Table

The Configure SNMPv3 Notify Table Menu allows you to define the type of
message that is sent from the switch (or non-authoritative entity) to the
authoritative entity. You have the option of defining the message type as
either an Inform or a Trap message. When a switch sends an Inform
message, it expects a response from the authoritative entity. In
comparison, when the switch sends a Trap message, it does not require a
response from the authoritative entity.

In addition, you define a Notify Tag that links an SNMPv3 Notify Table
entry to the host IP address defined in the Configure SNMPv3 Target
Address Table Menu. Lastly, you can configure a storage type for this
table entry which allows you to save the entry to flash memory.

SNMPv3 Target Address Table

The Configure SNMPv3 Target Address Table Menu allows you to
configure the IP address of the host. Also, in an SNMPv3 Target Address
Table entry, you configure the values of the Tag List parameter with the
previously defined Notify Tag parameter values. The Notify Tag parameter
is configured in the Configure SNMPv3 Notify Table. In this way, the Notify
and Target Address tables are linked. Lastly, you can configure a storage
type for this table entry which allows you to save the entry to flash
memory.

SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table

The Configure SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table Menu allows you to
define which user can send messages to the host IP address defined in
the Configure SNMPv3 Target Address Table. The user and its associated
information is previously configured in the Configure SNMPv3 User Table,
