Software User Manual 12/10/09 D-Link Unified Access System USING SNMP You can manage the D-Link DWS-4026 switch using SNMP. You can configure SNMP groups and users that can manage traps that the SNMP agent generates. D-Link uses both standard public MIBs for standard functionality and private MIBs that support additional switch functionality. SNMP is enabled by default. Any user can connect to the switch using the SNMPv3 protocol, but for authentication and encryption, you need to configure a new user profile. To configure a profile by using the CLI, see the SNMP section in the D-Link CLI Command Reference. To configure an SNMPv3 profile by using the Web interface, use the following steps: 1 Select Administration > User Accounts from the hierarchical tree on the left side of the Web interface. 2 From the User menu, select Create to create a new user. 3 Enter a new user name in the User Name field. 4 Enter a new user password in the Password field and then retype it in the Confirm Password field. To use SNMPv3 Authentication for this user, set a password of eight or more alphanumeric characters. 5 To enable authentication, use the Authentication Protocol menu to select either MD5 or SHA for the authentication protocol. 6 To enable encryption, use the Encryption Protocol menu to select DES for the encryption scheme. Then, enter an encryption code of eight or more alphanumeric characters in the Encryption Key field. 7 Click Submit. Document 34CSFP6XXUWS-SWUM100-D7 Understanding the User Interfaces Page 53
