Access to the switch using from clients using SNMPv3 provides additional
security features that cover message integrity, authentication, and
encryption; as well as controlling user access to specific areas of the MIB
tree.
The SNMPv3 security structure consists of security models, with each
model having it’s own security levels. There are three security models
defined, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3. Users are assigned to
“groups” that are defined by a security model and specified security levels.
Each group also has a defined security access to set of MIB objects for
reading and writing, which are known as “views.” The switch has a default
view (all MIB objects) and default groups defined for security models v1
and v2c. The following table shows the security models and levels available
and the system default settings.
