Pat public v2c
Enter the SNMP version number ( v1 , v2c , or v3 ). If you enter v3 , you have these
additional options:
•
encrypted
specifies that the password appears in encrypted format. This
keyword is available only when the
v3
keyword is specified.
•
auth
is an authentication level setting session that can be either the
HMAC-MD5-96 (
md5
) or the HMAC-SHA-96 (
sha
) authentication level
and requires a password string auth-password (not to exceed 64 characters).
If you enter v3 you can also configure a private ( priv ) encryption algorithm and
password string priv-password using the following keywords (not to exceed 64
characters):
• priv specifies the User-based Security Model (USM).
• des specifies the use of the 56-bit DES algorithm.
• 3des specifies the use of the 168-bit DES algorithm.
• aes specifies the use of the DES algorithm. You must select either 128-bit,
192-bit, or 256-bit encryption.
(Optional) Enter access access-list with a string (not to exceed 64 characters)
that is the name of the access list.
Returns to privileged EXEC mode. end
