Configuring SNMP Views
A view is a user-defined label for a collection of MIB subtrees. Each subtree ID is
defined by the Object ID (OID) of the root of the relevant subtrees. Either well-
known names can be used to specify the root of the desired subtree or an OID can
be entered (see Model OIDs).
Each subtree is either included or excluded in the view being defined.
The Views page enables creating and editing SNMP views. The default views
(Default, DefaultSuper) cannot be changed.
Views can be attached to groups in the Groups page or to a community which
employs basic access mode through the Communities page.
To define SNMP views:
STEP 1 Click SNMP > Views.
STEP 2 Click Add to define new views.
STEP 3 Enter the parameters.
• View Name—Enter a view name between 0-30 characters)
• Object ID Subtree—Select the node in the MIB tree that is included or
excluded in the selected SNMP view. The options to select the object are as
follows:
- Select from list—Enables you to navigate the MIB tree. Press the Up
arrow to go to the level of the selected node's parent and siblings; press
the Down arrow to descend to the level of the selected node's children.
Click nodes in the view to pass from one node to its sibling. Use the
scrollbar to bring siblings in view.
- User Defined—Enter an OID not offered in the Select from list option.
STEP 4 Select or deselect Include in view. If this is selected, the selected MIBs are
included in the view, otherwise they are excluded.
STEP 5 Click Apply.
STEP 6 In order to verify your view configuration, select the user-defined views from the
Filter: View Name list. The following views exist by default:
• Default—Default SNMP view for read and read/write views.
• DefaultSuper—Default SNMP view for administrator views.
