Managing the SNMP version 3 configuration
SNMP version 3 is an interoperable, standards-based protocol for network management. SNMP version 3
provides secure access to devices using a combination of packet authentication and encryption over the
network. SNMP version 3 provides the following security features:
• Message integrity—ensures that packets have not been altered
• Authentication—ensures that the packet is coming from a valid source
• Encryption—ensures that packet contents cannot be read by an unauthorized source
To configure SNMP version 3, you must enable SNMP version 3 on the switch and create one or more
SNMP version 3 user accounts.
To enable SNMP version 3, enter the set setup snmp common command and set the
SNMPv3Enabled parameter to True:
SN6000 FC Switch #> admin start
SN6000 FC Switch (admin) #> set setup snmp common
A list of attributes with formatting and current values will follow.
Enter a new value or simply press the ENTER key to accept the current value.
If you wish to terminate this process before reaching the end of the list
press 'q' or 'Q' and the ENTER key to do so.
