User Manual / IBR1100/IBR1150
• SNMPv1: SNMP version 1
is the most basic version
of SNMP. SNMPv1 will
configure the router to
transmit with settings
compatible with SNMP
version 1 protocols.
• SNMPv2c: SNMP
version 2c has the same
features as v1 with some
additional commands.
SNMPv2c will configure
the router to use settings
and data formatting
compatible with SNMP
version 2c.
• SNMPv3: SNMP version 3
includes all prior features
with security available.
SNMPv3 is the most
secure setting for SNMP.
If you wish to configure
traps then you must use
SNMP version 3.
SNMP v1 & v2c Settings
• Get community string: The
"Get community string"
is used to read SNMP
information from the router. This string is like a password that is transmitted in regular text with no
protection.
• Set community string: The "Set community string" is used when writing SNMP settings to the router. This
string is like a password. It is a good idea to make it different than the "Get community string."
SNMPv3
If you select SNMPv3, you have several additional configuration options for added security.
• Authentication type: Select the authentication and encryption type that will be used when connecting to
the router from the following dropdown list. These settings must match the configuration used on any
SNMP clients.
