Authentication Protocol Specify the authentication protocol, if any, for the user: • None. The SNMPv3 user is allowed access without authentication. The smart switch verifies only the SNMPv3 user name (by default, admin). • MD5. The SNMPv3 user is authenticated by Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC) with MD5. • SHA. The SNMPv3 user is authenticated by HMAC with SHA-1. Note: The password for the SNMPv3 user is the same password that is required to access the web management interface of the smart switch. For more information, see Manage the Password for the Smart Switch on page 53. Encryption Protocol If the authentication protocol is MD5 or SHA, you can specify whether to use encryption for the SNMPv3 user: • None. The SNMPv3 user is allowed access without encryption. • DES. The SNMPv3 user communication is encrypted by Data Encryption Standard (DES). You need to enter a password in the Encryption Key field. Encryption Key If the privacy protocol is DES, specify the encryption password for the user as a case-sensitive string from 8 to 64 characters in length. 3. Click the Apply button.
