NOTE:
The SNMP settings on the agent and the NMS must match.

Verify the configuration:
# Try to get the MTU value of NULL0 interface from the agent. The attempt succeeds.

SNMPv3 in VACM mode configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in
, the NMS (1.1.1.2/24) uses SNMPv3 to monitor and manage the interface
status of the agent (1.1.1.1/24). The agent automatically sends notifications to report events to the
NMS.
The NMS and the agent perform authentication when they establish an SNMP session. The
authentication algorithm is SHA-1 and the authentication key is
123456TESTauth&!
. The NMS and
the agent also encrypt the SNMP packets between them by using the AES algorithm and the privacy
key
123456TESTencr&!
.

Configuration procedure
1.
Configure the agent:
# Configure the IP address of the agent, and make sure the agent and the NMS can reach each
other. (Details not shown.)
# Assign the NMS (SNMPv3 group
managev3group
) read and write access to the objects
under the
ifTable
node (OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2), and deny its access to any other MIB object.
