Purpose
Add a new user for an SNMP group.
•
The username is the name of the user on the host that connects
to the agent.
•
The groupname is the name of the group to which the user is
associated.
•
Enter remote to specify a remote SNMP entity to which the
user belongs and the hostname or IP address of that entity with
the optional UDP port number. The default is 162.
Enter the SNMP version number (v1, v2c, or v3). If you enter
•
v3, you have these additional options:
encrypted specifies that the password appears in
–
encrypted format. This keyword is available only when
the v3 keyword is specified.
auth is an authentication level setting session that can be
–
either the HMAC-MD5-96 (md5) or the HMAC-SHA-96
(sha) authentication level and requires a password string
auth-password (not to exceed 64 characters).
If you enter v3 and the switch is running the cryptographic
•
software image, you can also configure a private (priv)
encryption algorithm and password string priv-password (not
to exceed 64 characters).
priv specifies the User-based Security Model (USM).
–
des specifies the use of the 56-bit DES algorithm.
–
3des specifies the use of the 168-bit DES algorithm.
–
aes specifies the use of the DES algorithm. You must
–
select either 128-bit, 192-bit, or 256-bit encryption.
(Optional) Enter access access-list with a string (not to exceed
•
64 characters) that is the name of the access list.
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
To display SNMPv3 information about auth | noauth |
Note
priv mode configuration, you must enter the show snmp
user privileged EXEC command.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
