Managing the SNMP version 3 configuration SNMP version 3 is an interoperable, standards-based protocol for network management. SNMP version 3 provides secure access to devices using a combination of packet authentication and encryption over the network. SNMP version 3 provides the following security features: • Message integrity-ensures that packets have not been altered • Authentication-ensures that the packet is coming from a valid source • Encryption-ensures that packet contents cannot be read by an unauthorized source To configure SNMP version 3, you must enable SNMP version 3 on the switch and create one or more SNMP version 3 user accounts. To enable SNMP version 3, enter the set setup snmp common command and set the SNMPv3Enabled parameter to True: 8/20q FC Switch #> admin start 8/20q FC Switch (admin) #> set setup snmp common A list of attributes with formatting and current values will follow. Enter a new value or simply press the ENTER key to accept the current value. If you wish to terminate this process before reaching the end of the list press 'q' or 'Q' and the ENTER key to do so. Current Values: SnmpEnabled Contact Location ReadCommunity WriteCommunity AuthFailureTrap ProxyEnabled SNMPv3Enabled True public private False True False New Value (press ENTER to not specify value, 'q' to quit): SnmpEnabled (True / False) : Contact (string, max=64 chars) : Location (string, max=64 chars) : ReadCommunity (string, max=32 chars) : WriteCommunity (string, max=32 chars) : AuthFailureTrap (True / False) : ProxyEnabled (True / False) : SNMPv3Enabled (True / False) : t Do you want to save and activate this snmp setup?
