SNMP Overview
Users
By default, authentication and encryption parameters are not configured. Authentication
parameters which a user must use in order to be validated by the device can be modified.
SNMP authentication allows the device to validate the managing node that issued the
SNMP message and determine if the message has been tampered with.
User access and authentication privileges must be explicitly configured. In a user
configuration, a user is associated with an access group, which is a collection of users who
have common access privileges and views (see
Page 152
Access
Groups).
