Configuring SNMP & RMON SNMP Configurations Security Level Set the security level. The security level from lowest to highest is: NoAuthNoPriv, AuthNoPriv, AuthPriv. The security level of the user should not be lower than the group it belongs to. NoAuthNoPriv: No authentication algorithm but a user name match is applied to check packets, and no privacy algorithm is applied to encrypt them. AuthNoPriv: An authentication algorithm is applied to check packets, but no privacy algorithm is applied to encrypt them. AuthPriv: An authentication algorithm and a privacy algorithm are applied to check and encrypt packets. 2) If you have chosen AuthNoPriv or AuthPriv as the security level, you need to set corresponding Authentication Mode or Privacy Mode. If not, skip this step. Authentication Mode With AuthNoPriv or AuthPriv selected, configure the authentication mode and password for authentication. Two authentication modes are provided: MD5: Enable the HMAC-MD5 algorithm for authentication. SHA: Enable the SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm) algorithm for authentication. SHA algorithm is securer than MD5 algorithm. Authentication Password Set the password for authentication. Privacy Mode With AuthPriv selected, configure the privacy mode and password for encryption. The switch uses the DES (Data Encryption Standard) algorithm for encryption. Privacy Password Set the password for encryption. 3) Click Create. 2.2 Using the CLI 2.2.1 Enabling SNMP Step 1 Step 2 configure Enter Global Configuration Mode. snmp-server Enabling SNMP.
