Configuring SNMPv3 Management Access
1. Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure Global) page to enable
SNMP on the switch, and to enable trap messages.
2. Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure Trap) page to specify trap
managers so that key events are reported by this switch to your
management station.
3. Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure Engine) page to change the
local engine ID. If you want to change the default engine ID, it must be
changed before configuring other parameters.
4. Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure View) page to specify read
and write access views for the switch MIB tree.
5. Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure User) page to configure
SNMP user groups with the required security model (i.e., SNMP v1, v2c
or v3) and security level (i.e., authentication and privacy).
6. Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure Group) page to assign SNMP
users to groups, along with their specific authentication and privacy
passwords.
CONFIGURING GLOBAL
SETTINGS FOR SNMP
