Figure 14-1. Example of SNMP version 3 Enable Command

Enabling SNMPv3

The snmpv3 enable command starts a dialog that performs three functions:

enabling the switch to receive SNMPv3 messages, configuring the initial users,

and, optionally, to restrict non-version 3 messages to "read only". Figure 10-1

shows an example of this dialog.

For most SNMPv3 management software to be able to create new users, they

must have an initial user record clone. These records can be downgraded,

given less features, but not upgraded with new features added. For this reason

it is recommended that a second user with SHA and DES are created at the

time you enable SNMPv3
