<view_name 32>} (1)
Description
This command creates a new SNMP group, or a table that maps SNMP users to SNMP
views.
Parameters
<groupname 32>
−
An alphanumeric name of up to 32 characters that will identify the SNMP
group the new SNMP user will be associated with.
v1
– Specifies that SNMP version 1 will be used. The Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP), version 1, is a network management protocol that provides a means to monitor and
control network devices.
v2c
– Specifies that SNMP version 2c will be used. The SNMP v2c supports both centralized
and distributed network management strategies. It includes improvements in the Structure of
Management Information (SMI) and adds some security features.
v3
– Specifies that the SNMP version 3 will be used. SNMP v3 provides secure access to
devices through a combination of authentication and encrypting packets over the network.
SNMP v3 adds:
•
Message integrity
−
Ensures that packets have not been tampered with during
transit.
•
Authentication
−
Determines if an SNMP message is from a valid source.
•
Encryption
−
Scrambles the contents of messages to prevent it being viewed by
an unauthorized source.
noauth_nopriv
−
Specifies that there will be no authorization and no encryption of packets
sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manager.
auth_nopriv
−
Specifies that authorization will be required, but there will be no encryption of
packets sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manager.
auth_priv
−
Specifies that authorization will be required, and that packets sent between the
Switch and a remote SNMP manger will be encrypted.
read_view
– Specifies that the SNMP group being created can request SNMP messages.
write_view
– Specifies that the SNMP group being created has write privileges.
notify_view
−
Specifies that the SNMP group being created can receive SNMP trap
messages generated by the Switch’s SNMP agent.
<view_name 32>
−
An alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters that is used to identify the
group of MIB objects that a remote SNMP manager is allowed to access on the Switch.
