On the Web UI, on the SNMP main screen scroll down to the bottom and click on VACM and
set/verify the parameters. These parameters are nested and an example shown below:

Type: Choices: (click on the box or select from the choices pulldown)
- Included (DEFAULT) – The family of subtrees is included in the MIB view
- Excluded – The family of subtrees is excluded in the MIB view
Filling in the VACM View parameter values can be accomplished via the CLI using the following
commands:
% set services snmp vacm view internet subtree 1.3.6.1 included

VACM group - A VACM group is used to organize a set of users (in case of SNMP v3) or a set of
community security names (in case of SNMP v1 and v2c) for the purpose of managing their access
rights to MIB parameters (OIDs). For example in the case below, the group name is “all-rights” with
one member whose security name is “public” (as defined in snmp community configuration earlier)
and whose “security model “ is v1 and v2c. In addition, the “all-rights” group has access to “internet”
view under “any” security model and “no-auth-no-priv” security level. That is, the members of “all-
rights” group can access internet view without any authentication (auth) or encryption (priv).
