Access control and Advanced setup
Advanced configuration of the SNMP agent is done using the Access control
configurations page. Using this page requires good knowledge of SNMP agent
configuration as specified in relevant RFC’s.
Generally, this page is used for setting up the Local Configuration Datastore
(LCD) of the SNMP agent. The LCD describes the configuration of the SNMP
agent. All of the SNMP agent configuration can be done using this page. But
because the most common configuration of the agent is the setting of
community names, the SNMPv3 user, and the notification receivers, the setting
up of that data is preferably done using the SNMP page instead. However, the
configuration done on the SNMP page is internally processed as if entered
directly into the LCD.
Please refer to section SNMP page internal data below for a description on how
the form on the SNMP page is internally represented and related to the LCD.
Please refer to section Access control and Advanced setup below for a
description of the format on the LCD.
The default configuration of the LCD adds configurations to the SNMP agent
which are used by the community names, SNMPv3 user, and the notification
receivers configured on the SNMP page. Modifications and additions to the
configuration can be done here.
The following is the default configuration:
• Access entries for the notifiers, readers, writers, authUsers and privUsers
principals that are configured using the SNMP page. These define the
permissions for the different principals. You can modify these entries to
change the permissions of these community names and SNMPv3 users.
• A view family tree All that includes all the OID’ s. This is used when
setting up the access entries.
• Entries that define how notifications (traps) are sent.
The configuration is done using entries in a text box.
To edit the SNMP agent configuration:
1. Navigate to The Control Networks|SNMP and select the link Access
control configuration. The Access control configurations page, Figure
62, will appear.
