SNMP Security Commands
view
Syntax view view-name subtree oid-value
no view view-name [subtree oid-value]
Context config>system>security>snmp
Description
This command configures a view. Views control the accessibility of a MIB object within the
configured MIB view and subtree. Object identifiers (OIDs) uniquely identify MIB objects in the
subtree. OIDs are organized hierarchically with specific values assigned by different organizations.
Once the subtree (OID) is identified, a mask can be created to select the portions of the subtree to be
included or excluded for access using this particular view. See the mask command. The view(s)
configured with this command can subsequently be used in read, write, and notify commands which
are used to assign specific access group permissions to created views and assigned to particular
access groups.
Multiple subtrees can be added or removed from a view name to tailor a view to the requirements of
the user access group.
The no view view-name command removes a view and all subtrees.
The no view view-name subtree oid-value removes a sub-tree from the view name.
Default No views are defined.
Parameters view-name — Enter a 1 to 32 character view name. (Default: none)
oid-value — The object identifier (OID) value for the view-name. This value, for example,

1.3.6.1.6.3.11.2.1, combined with the mask and include and exclude statements, configures the
access available in the view.
It is possible to have a view with different subtrees with their own masks and include and
exclude statements. This allows for customizing visibility and write capabilities to specific user
requirements.
