These notes summarize some critical guidelines regarding SNMPv3 view configuration.
Please read all the notes before proceeding.
A MIB view called all is created by default in the system. This view contains all management
objects supported by the system.
By default, view-all and view-none SNMPv3 views are created on the WAP device. These
views cannot be deleted or modified.
SNMP Views
To add and configure an SNMP view:
Select SNMP > Views in the navigation pane.
Click Add to create a new row in the SNMPv3 Views table.
Check the box in the new row and click Edit:
• View Name—Enter a name that identifies the MIB view. View names can contain up to
32 alphanumeric characters.
• Type—Choose whether to include or exclude the view subtree or family of subtrees
from the MIB view.
• OID—Enter an OID string for the subtree to include or exclude from the view.
For example, the system subtree is specified by the OID string .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.
• Mask—Enter an OID mask. The mask is 47 characters in length. The format of the OID
mask is xx.xx.xx (.)... or xx:xx:xx.... (:) and is 16 octets in length. Each octet is two
hexadecimal characters separated by either a period (.) or a colon (:). Only hex
characters are accepted in this field.
For example, OID mask FA.80 is 11111010.10000000.
A family mask is used to define a family of view subtrees. The family mask indicates
which subidentifiers of the associated family OID string are significant to the family's
definition. A family of view subtrees enables efficient control access to one row in a
table.
