Create VACM group named “all-rights” and a view named “internet” 2.
The VACM determines whether a SNMP request that has been authenticated by matching community
security name (in case of SNMP v1/v2c) or by USM (in case SNMP v3) is authorized to access the
MIB object that is contained in the request.
VACM view: A VACM view is a MIB view that includes an OID subtree value and a type that
determines if the OID subtree is included or excluded from the view. For example in the case below,
the view name is “internet” with subtree OID value of 1.3.6.1 and type “included”. This view
basically includes all OIDs at or below 1.3.6.1 OID subtree.
