TYMSERVE 2000
Set operations require the use of an authentication mechanism, MD5. For set operations, the IP
address of the remote party is checked against its TAddress field and the cryptochecksum
transmitted in the packet is validated. As a separate party pair is required for each SNMPv2
manager, the TS2000 allows party entries for up to 3 remote SNMPv2 managers to access the
TS2000 using set requests. The three remote parties are 4, 6 & 8. For security reasons, you must
program the TAddress and MD5 key values for these parties from the front panel of the TS2000.
When the MD5 key is programmed, its value will be copied to the corresponding local party.
Note that due to export restrictions on cryptographic techniques, the use of DES privacy, the
encryption of the data inside an authenticated packet, is not supported. The purpose of the DES
encrypted packets is to prevent sensitive data inside the packets from being viewed by
unauthorized personnel. As the TS2000 SNMP agent does not transmit or receive sensitive data,
full functionality is preserved.
Many of the fields in the party table entries are the same for parties 1- 8. Those fields which are
common to these parties are shown below.
Common Party Members
partyTDomain 1.3.6.1.6.1.1 (snmpUDPDomain)
partyMaxMessageSize 1458
partyAuthClock 0
partyAuthPublic NULL
partyAuthLifetime 300
partyPrivProtocol noPriv
partyPrivPrivate NULL
partyPrivPublic NULL
The definition of the remainder of each party entry is shown below. Note that an extra member
is defined as "partyLocation". This takes a value of "local" or "remote" to help identify the
parties. This information would be reversed on the management platform.
