• Type—Whether to include or exclude the view subtree or family of subtrees
from the MIB view.
• OID—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—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 . (period) or : (colon). Only
hex characters are accepted in this field.
For example, OID mask FA.80 is 11111010. 1 0000000.
A family mask is used to define a family of view subtrees. The family mask
indicates which sub-identifiers 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.
Click Add, and then click Save. The view is added to the SNMPv3 Views list and
your changes are saved to the Running Configuration and to the Startup
Configuration.
To remove a view, select the view in the list and click Remove.
SNMPv3 groups allow you to combine users into groups of different authorization
and access privileges. Each group is associated with one of three security levels:
• noAuthNoPriv
• authNoPriv
• authPriv
Access to Management Objects (MIBs) for each group is controlled by associating
a MIB view to a group for read or write access, separately.
By default, the WAP Device has two groups:
• RO—A read-only group using authentication and data encryption. Users in
this group use an MD5 key/password for authentication and a DES key/
password for encryption. Both the MD5 and DES key/passwords must be
