4.9.2 SNMP V3 Profile
SNMP v3 can provide more security functions when the user performs
remote management through SNMP protocol. It delivers SNMP information
to the administrator with user authentication; all of data between
JetNet
6710G
and the administrator are encrypted to ensure secure
communication.
Security Level
: Here the user can select the following levels of security:
None, User Authentication, and Authentication with privacy.
Authentication Protocol
: Here the user can select either MD5
(Message-Digest algorithm 5) or SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm). MD5 is a
widely used cryptographic hash function with a 128-bit hash value. SHA
(Secure Hash Algorithm) hash functions refer to five Federal Information
Processing Standard-approved algorithms for computing a condensed
digital representation.
JetNet 6710G
provides 2 user authentication
protocols in MD5 and SHA. You will need to configure SNMP v3 parameters
for your SNMP tool with the same authentication method.
