SNMP Configuration Overview
This section describes how to configure SNMP components which apply to SNMPv1 and
SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 on the router.
• Configuring SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c on page 292
• Configuring SNMPv3 on page 292
Configuring SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c
Alcatel-Lucent routers are based on SNMPv3. To use the routers with SNMPv1 and/or SNMPv2c,
SNMP community strings must be configured. Three pre-defined access methods are available
when SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c access is required. Each access method (r, rw, or rwa) is associated
with an SNMPv3 access group that determines the access privileges and the scope of managed
objects available. The community command is used to associate a community string with a
specific access method and the required SNMP version (SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c). The access
methods are:
• Read-Only — Grants read only access to the entire management structure with the
exception of the security area.
• Read-Write — Grants read and write access to the entire management structure with the
exception of the security area.
• Read-Write-All — Grants read and write access to the entire management structure,
including security.
If the predefined access groups do not meet your access requirements, then additional access
groups and views can be configured. The usm-community command is used to associate an
access group with an SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c community string.
SNMP trap destinations are configured in the config>log>snmp-trap-group context.
Configuring SNMPv3
The OSimplements SNMPv3. If security features other than the default views are required, then
the following parameters must be configured:
• Configure views
• Configure access groups
• Configure SNMP users
