Cisco WAP131 and WAP351 Administration Guide
Use the SNMP Users page to define users, associate a security level to each user,
and configure the security keys per user.
Each user is mapped to an SNMPv3 group, either from the predefined or user-
defined groups, and, optionally, is configured for authentication and encryption.
For authentication, only the SHA type is supported. For encryption, only the DES
type is supported. There are no default SNMPv3 users on the WAP device, and
you can add up to eight users.
To add SNMP users:
Select SNMP > Users.
Click Add to create a new row in the SNMPv3 Users table.
Check the box in the new row and click Edit.
Configure these parameters:
• User Name—Enter the name that identifies the SNMPv3 user. User names
can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
• Group—Enter the group that the user is mapped to. The default groups are
RW and RO. You can define additional groups on the SNMP Groups page.
• Authentication Type—Choose the type of authentication to use on the
SNMPv3 requests from the user, which can be one of these options:
- SHA—Requires SHA authentication on SNMP requests from the user.
- None—SNMPv3 requests from this user require no authentication.
• Authentication Pass Phrase—If you specify SHA as the authentication
type, enter the pass phrase to enable the SNMP agent to authenticate the
requests sent by the user. The pass phrase must be between 8 and 32
characters in length.
• Encryption Type—Choose the type of privacy to use on SNMP requests
from the user, which can be one of these options:
- DES—Uses DES encryption on SNMPv3 requests from the user.
- None—SNMPv3 requests from this user require no privacy.
