xStack DGS-3400 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Managed Switch CLI Manual
create snmp group
Purpose
Used to create a new SNMP group, or a table that maps SNMP users to
SNMP views.
Syntax create snmp group <groupname 32> [v1 | v2c | v3 [noauth_nopriv |
auth_nopriv | auth_priv]] {read_view <view_name 32> | write_view
<view_name 32> | notify_view <view_name 32>}
Description
The create snmp group command creates a new SNMP group, or a table
that maps SNMP users to SNMP views.
Parameters
<groupname 32> − An alphanumeric name of up to 32 characters that will
identify the SNMP group the new SNMP user will be associated with.
v1 – Specifies that SNMP version 1 will be used. The Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP), version 1, is a network management
protocol that provides a means to monitor and control network devices.
v2c – Specifies that SNMP version 2c will be used. The SNMP v2c
supports both centralized and distributed network management strategies.
It includes improvements in the Structure of Management Information (SMI)
and adds some security features.
v3 – Specifies that the SNMP version 3 will be used. SNMP v3 provides
secure access to devices through a combination of authentication and
encrypting packets over the network. SNMP v3 adds:
Message integrity
−
Ensures that packets have not been tampered with
during transit.
Authentication
−
Determines if an SNMP message is from a valid source.
Encryption
−
Scrambles the contents of messages to prevent it being
viewed by an unauthorized source.
noauth_nopriv − Specifies that there will be no authorization and no
encryption of packets sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP
manager.
auth_nopriv − Specifies that authorization will be required, but there will be
no encryption of packets sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP
manager.
auth_priv − Specifies that authorization will be required, and that packets
sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manger will be encrypted.
read_view – Specifies that the SNMP group being created can request
SNMP messages.
write_view – Specifies that the SNMP group being created has write
privileges.
notify_view − Specifies that the SNMP group being created can receive
SNMP trap messages generated by the Switch’s SNMP agent.
<view_name 32> − An alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters that is
used to identify the group of MIB objects that a remote SNMP manager is
allowed to access on the Switch.
Restrictions
Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
