Configuring SNMP

Weidmueller Industrial Ethernet switches support SNMP protocol. The available versions are
SNMP V1, SNMP V2c, and SNMP V3. SNMP V1 and SNMP V2c use a community string match
for authentication, which means SNMP servers access all objects with read-only or read/write
permissions using the community string public/private (default value). SNMP V3, which requires
you to select an authentication level of MD5 or SHA, is the most secure protocol. You can also
enable data encryption to enhance data security.
SNMP security modes and security levels supported by the device are shown in the following table.
Select the security mode and level that will be used to communicate between the SNMP agent and
manager.
