Managing Switch User Accounts Setting Up SNMP Access for a User Account
OmniSwitch 6250/6450 Switch Management Guide May 2012 page 9-29
SNMP Access Without Authentication/Encryption
To give a user SNMP access without SNMP authentication required, enter the user command with the no 
auth option. For example, to give existing user thomas SNMP access without SNMP authentication, enter 
the following:
-> user thomas password techpubs no auth
For this user, if the SNMP community map mode is enabled (the default), the SNMP community map 
must include a mapping for this user to a community string. In this example, the community string is 
our_group:
-> snmp community map our_group user thomas
In addition, the global SNMP security level on the switch must allow non-authenticated SNMP frames 
through the switch. By default, the SNMP security level is privacy all; this is the highest level of SNMP 
security, which allows only SNMPv3 frames through the switch. Use the snmp security command to 
change the SNMP security level. For more information about configuring SNMP globally on the switch, 
see Chapter 3, “Using SNMP.”
