there is no restriction on the contents of the traps. This can only be selected for SNMPv3.
STEP 4
Managing SNMP Users
An SNMP user is defined by the login credentials (username, passwords, and authentication method) and
by the context and scope in which it operates by association with a group and an Engine ID.
The configured user have the attributes of its group, having the access privileges configured within the
associated view.
Groups enable network managers to assign access rights to a group of users instead of to a single user.
A user can only belong to a single group.
To create an SNMPv3 user, the following must first exist:
• An engine ID must first be configured on the device. This is done in the Engine ID page.
• An SNMPv3 group must be available. An SNMPv3 group is defined in the Groups page.
To display SNMP users and define new ones:
STEP 1
This page contains existing users.
STEP 2
This page provides information for assigning SNMP access control privileges to SNMP users.
STEP 3
• User Name—Enter a name for the user.
• Engine ID—Select 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. To receive inform
messages and request information, you must define both a local and remote user.
- Local—User is connected to the local device.
