Configuring SNMP version 3 requires configuring SNMP users in one of three methods. Refer to

Important Points to Remember
• Typically, 5-second timeout and 3-second retry values on an SNMP server are sufficient for both LAN
and WAN applications. If you experience a timeout with these values, increase the timeout value to
greater than 3 seconds, and increase the retry value to greater than 2 seconds on your SNMP server.
• User ACLs override group ACLs.
Set up SNMP
As previously stated, Dell Networking OS supports SNMP version 1 and version 2 that are community-based
security models.
The primary difference between the two versions is that version 2 supports two additional protocol
operations (
informs operation and snmpgetbulk query ) and one additional object ( counter64 object ).
SNMP version 3 (SNMPv3) is a user-based security model that provides password authentication for user
security and encryption for data security and privacy. Three sets of configurations are available for SNMP
read/write operations: no password or privacy, password privileges, password and privacy privileges.
You can configure a maximum of 16 users even if they are in different groups.
Creating a Community
For SNMPv1 and SNMPv2, create a community to enable the community-based security in Dell Networking
OS.
The management station generates requests to either retrieve or alter the value of a management object and
is called the
SNMP manager . A network element that processes SNMP requests is called an SNMP agent . An
