Mapping SNMPv1/v2 users to SecurityNames

Clients that connect using SNMPv1/v2 must be mapped onto a "security name" and added to a group, the same as
SNMPv3 users.
The SNMP Communities (VACM) dialog, shown below, enables the mapping of a community string and a source IP or
network address to a security name (user name).

Map SNMP v1 or v2 users to SecurityNames
1. Click on the chassis and select the SNMP tab.
2. Under View-based access control, click Configure communities. The SNMP Communities (VACM) dialog
displays.
3. To map a new user, click Add new community, or to edit an existing mapping click the
Add/Edit Community dialog displays (see the figure below).
4. Enter or edit details for the community mapping:
• Community string—Specify the community string. The community string is case-sensitive and must contain 1–32
alphanumeric characters (no spaces), and the first character must be a letter.
IP version—Specify whether this community allows access via IPv4 or IPv6.
•
• Source—You may restrict access to the community from certain sources, by specifying the source address, subnet
or hostname.
Security name—Specify a security name (user name). The security name can be used later to add the user to a
•
group, like SNMPv3.
5. Click Add community to finish setting up the community mapping.
