RackSwitch G8000: Application Guide

Default Configuration

IBM N/OS has two SNMPv3 users by default. Both of the following users have
access to all the MIBs supported by the switch:
User 1 name is adminmd5 (password adminmd5). Authentication used is MD5.
User 2 name is adminsha (password adminsha). Authentication used is SHA.
Up to 16 SNMP users can be configured on the switch. To modify an SNMP user,
enter the following commands:
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server user <1-16> name <1-32 characters>
Users can be configured to use the authentication/privacy options. The G8000
support two authentication algorithms: MD5 and SHA, as specified in the following
command:
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server user <1-16> authentication-protocol
{
md5|sha} authentication-password
-or-
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server user <1-16> authentication-protocol
User Configuration Example
1. To configure a user with name "admin," authentication type MD5, and
authentication password of "admin," privacy option DES with privacy password
of "admin," use the following CLI commands.
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server user 5 name admin
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server user 5 authentication-protocol md5
authentication-password
Changing authentication password; validation required:
Enter current admin password:
Enter new authentication password:
Re-enter new authentication password: <auth. password>
New authentication password accepted.
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server user 5 privacy-protocol des
privacy-password
Changing privacy password; validation required:
Enter current admin password:
Enter new privacy password:
Re-enter new privacy password:
New privacy password accepted.
2. Configure a user access group, along with the views the group may access.
Use the access table to configure the group's access level.
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server access 5 name admingrp
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server access 5 level authpriv
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server access 5 read-view iso
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server access 5 write-view iso
RS G8000(config)# snmp-server access 5 notify-view iso
Because the read view, write view, and notify view are all set to "iso," the user
type has access to all private and public MIBs.
