SNMP v3 security Simple Network Management Protocol Version 3 (SNMPv3) is an interoperable standards-based protocol for network management. SNMPv3 provides secure access to devices using a combination of authenticating and encrypting packets over the network. SNMP v3 security is an additional layer of security. The SNMP v3 security is available on a secure (SSL) entry switch. The security features provided in SNMPv3 are: • Message integrity-Ensuring that a packet has not been tampered with during transit • Authentication-Determining that the message is from a valid source • Encryption-Scrambling the contents of a packet to prevent it from being seen by an unauthorized source You configure SNMP v3 security in the SNMP v3 Manager dialog box (Figure 61).
