Configuring an SNMP v3 user
SNMP v3 adds more security by using authentication and privacy encryption. You can specify
an SNMP v3 user on FortiVoice so that SNMP managers can connect to the FortiVoice unit to
view system information and receive SNMP traps.
To configure an SNMP v3 user
1. Go to System > Configuration > SNMP.
2. Under User, click New to add a user or select a user and click Edit.
The SNMPv3 User page appears.
You can add up to 16 users.
3. Configure the following:
Queries Enter the Port number (161 by default) that the SNMP managers in this
community use for SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c queries to receive
configuration information from the FortiVoice unit. Mark the Enable
check box to activate queries for each SNMP version.
Traps Enter the Local Port and Remote Port numbers (162 local, 162 remote by
default) that the FortiVoice unit uses to send SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c
traps to the SNMP managers in this community. Enable traps for each
SNMP version that the SNMP managers use.
SNMP Event Enable each SNMP event for which the FortiVoice unit should send traps
to the SNMP managers in this community.
Note: Since FortiVoice checks its status in a scheduled interval, not all
the events will trigger traps. For example, FortiVoice checks its hardware
status every 60 seconds. This means that if the power is off for a few
seconds but is back on before the next status check, no system event
trap will be sent.
GUI field Description
User name Enter a name to identify the SNMP user. If you are editing an existing
user, you cannot change the name.
Enable Enable to send traps to and allow queries from the user’s SNMP
managers.
Security level Choose one of the three security levels:
• No authentication, no privacy: This option is similar to SNMP v1 and
v2.
• Authentication, no privacy: This option enables authentication only.
The SNMP manager needs to supply a password that matches the
password you specify on FortiVoice. You must also specify the
authentication protocol (either SHA1 or MD5).
• Authentication, privacy: This option enables both authentication
and encryption. You must specify the protocols and passwords.
Both the protocols and passwords on the SNMP manager and
FortiVoice must match.
