Section III: SNMPv3 Protocol

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 SecurityToGroup Menu to
associate a user to a security group. See Figure 99 for an illustration of
how the user configuration tables are linked.

Figure 99 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. See Appendix B, SNMPv3 Configuration on page
293 for an example of Manage
r and Operator configurations.

After you configure an SNMPv3 user, you need to configure SNMPv3
message notification. This configuration is accomplished with the
following tables:

❑ Configure SNMPv3 Notify Table

❑ Configure SNMPv3 Target Address Table

❑ Configure SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table
