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
