Description
Parameters
users to SNMP views.
create snmp group <groupname 32> [v1 | v2c | v3
[noauth_nopriv | auth_nopriv | auth_priv]] {read_view
<view_name 32> | write_view <view_name 32> | notify_view
<view_name 32>}
The create snmp group command creates a new SNMP group,
or a table that maps SNMP users to SNMP views.
<groupname 32> − An alphanumeric name of up to 32 characters
that will identify the SNMP group the new SNMP user will be
associated with.
v1 – Specifies that SNMP version 1 will be used. The Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP), version 1, is a network
management protocol that provides a means to monitor and
control network devices.
v2c – Specifies that SNMP version 2c will be used. The SNMP
v2c supports both centralized and distributed network
management strategies. It includes improvements in the Structure
of Management Information (SMI) and adds some security
features.
v3 – Specifies that the SNMP version 3 will be used. SNMP v3
provides secure access to devices through a combination of
authentication and encrypting packets over the network. SNMP
v3 adds:
Message integrity − Ensures that packets have not been
tampered with during transit.
Authentication − Determines if an SNMP message is from
a valid source.
Encryption − Scrambles the contents of messages to
prevent it being viewed by an unauthorized source.
noauth_nopriv − Specifies that there will be no authorization and
no encryption of packets sent between the Switch and a remote
SNMP manager.
auth_nopriv − Specifies that authorization will be required, but
there will be no encryption of packets sent between the Switch
and a remote SNMP manager.
auth_priv − Specifies that authorization will be required, and that
packets sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manger will
be encrypted.
read_view – Specifies that the SNMP group being created can
request SNMP messages.
write_view – Specifies that the SNMP group being created has
write privileges.
<view_name 32> − An alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters
that is used to identify the group of MIB objects that a remote
