320 RackSwitch G8000: Application Guide
Default Configuration
IBM N/OS has two SNMPv3 users by default. Both of the following users have
access to all the MIBs supported by the switch:
• User 1 name is adminmd5 (password adminmd5). Authentication used is MD5.
• User 2 name is adminsha (password adminsha). Authentication used is SHA.
Up to 16 SNMP users can be configured on the switch. To modify an SNMP user,
enter the following commands:
Users can be configured to use the authentication/privacy options. The G8000
support two authentication algorithms: MD5 and SHA, as specified in the following
command:
User Configuration Example
1. To configure a user with name “admin,” authentication type MD5, and
authentication password of “admin,” privacy option DES with privacy password
of “admin,” use the following CLI commands.
2. Configure a user access group, along with the views the group may access.
Use the access table to configure the group’s access level.
Because the read view, write view, and notify view are all set to “iso,” the user
type has access to all private and public MIBs.
