DGS-6604 m Usage Guideline Examples snmp-server user Use this command to create an SNMP user. The group to which this user belongs must be created first. If this user belongs to a V3 group and also specifies authentication or encryption, then the password used for authentication and encryption needs to be defined. An snmp user is unable to be deleted if it has been associated with an snmpserver host. An error message will appear to indicate this case. The snmp user will not be able to manage the device if a password should be present but it is not present. No default values exist for authentication or privacy algorithms when the command is configured. Also, no default passwords exist. The minimum length for a password is one character, although it is recommended to use at least eight characters for security. If a password is forgotten, it cannot be recovered and it and will need to manually reconfigured. Either a plain-text password or a localized message digest 5 (MD5) digest can be specified. When using a localized MD5 or SHA digest, the string can be specified instead of the plain-text password. The digest should be formatted as aa:bb:cc:dd where aa, bb, and cc are hex values. In the following example, the plain-text password "hb123" is configured for the user "abcd" in the SNMPv3 group "public". Switch(config)# snmp-server user abcd public v3 auth md5 hb123 In the following example, the MD5 digest string is used instead of the plain text password. Switch(config)# snmp-server user abcd public v3 encrypted auth md5 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99:AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF Verify the settings by entering the show snmp user command. CLI Reference Guide 836
