Version Version of the SNMP standard. The SL500 library supports:
â– SNMPv2c of the simple network management protocol for
machine status queries. With this version, any information
transmitted is not secure.
â– SNMPv3 of the simple network management protocol is
reserved for proprietary information. Because this version
supports encryption and stronger user identification it is
the preferred protocol for proprietary data.
Community (v2c
only)
Applications use community strings for access control. The
manager includes the community string in its SNMP
messages to an agent. The agent consequently can accept or
reject the operation. This can be a maximum of 31
alphanumeric characters.
UserName (v3
only)
SNMP user ID.
Auth (v3 only) Authentication protocol type (MD5 or SHA) string for users
and hosts receiving traps. One of the two primary SNMPv3
security protocols designed to reliably identify the integrity
of the originating party.
AuthPass (v3
only)
Authentication password of the user.
Priv (v3 only) Privacy protocol type (DES or AES): The other two primary
SNMPv3 security protocols are designed to protect
information within the message from disclosure.
PrivPass (v3 only) Encryption Password that is the private key for encryption.
