Defining SNMP Users
The SNMP Users Page enables assigning system users to SNMP groups, as well as
defining the user authentication method. Each SNMPv3 user is defined by a unique
name. Users must be configured with a specific security level and assigned to a
group.
Command Attributes
• User Name — Contains a list of user-defined user names. The field range is up to
30 alphanumeric characters.
• Group Name — Contains a list of user-defined SNMP groups. SNMP groups are
defined in the SNMP Group Profile Page.
• Engine ID — Displays either the local or remote SNMP entity to which the user is
connected. Changing or removing the local SNMP Engine ID deletes the SNMPv3
user database.
• Local — Indicates that the user is connected to a local SNMP entity.
• Remote — Indicates that the user is connected to a remote SNMP entity. If the
Engine ID is defined, remote devices receive inform messages.
