Implementing SNMP
• Message integrity—Ensures that messages have not been altered or destroyed in an unauthorized manner
• Message origin authentication—Ensures that the claimed identity of the user on whose behalf received
• Message confidentiality—Ensures that information is not made available or disclosed to unauthorized
SNMPv3 authorizes management operations only by configured users and encrypts SNMP messages.
USM uses two authentication protocols:
• HMAC-MD5-96 authentication protocol
• HMAC-SHA-96 authentication protocol
USM uses Cipher Block Chaining (CBC)-DES (DES-56) as the privacy protocol for message encryption.
View-Based Access Control Model
The View-Based Access Control Model (VACM) enables SNMP users to control access to SNMP managed
objects by supplying read, write, or notify access to SNMP objects. It prevents access to objects restricted by
views. These access policies can be set when user groups are configured with the snmp-server group
command.
MIB Views
For security reasons, it is often valuable to be able to restrict the access rights of some groups to only a subset
of the management information within the management domain. To provide this capability, access to a
management object is controlled through MIB views, which contain the set of managed object types (and,
optionally, the specific instances of object types) that can be viewed.
Access Policy
Access policy determines the access rights of a group. The three types of access rights are as follows:
• read-view access—The set of object instances authorized for the group when objects are read.
• write-view access—The set of object instances authorized for the group when objects are written.
• notify-view access—The set of object instances authorized for the group when objects are sent in a
IP Precedence and DSCP Support for SNMP
SNMP IP Precedence and differentiated services code point (DSCP) support delivers QoS specifically for
SNMP traffic. You can change the priority setting so that SNMP traffic generated in a router is assigned a
specific QoS class. The IP Precedence or IP DSCP code point value is used to determine how packets are
handled in weighted random early detection (WRED).
After the IP Precedence or DSCP is set for the SNMP traffic generated in a router, different QoS classes
cannot be assigned to different types of SNMP traffic in that router.
