create snmp group
Purpose
Used to create a new SNMP group, or a table that maps SNMP users to SNMP
views.
Syntax
create snmp group <groupname 32> [v1 | v2c | v3 [noauth_nopriv | auth_nopriv |
auth_priv]] {read_view <view_name 32> | write_view <view_name 32> |
notify_view <view_name 32>} (1)
Description
This command is used to create a new SNMP group, or a table that maps SNMP
users to SNMP views.
Parameters
<groupname 32> − An alphanumeric name of up to 32 characters that will identify
the SNMP group the new SNMP user will be associated with.
v1 – Specifies that SNMP version 1 will be used. The Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP), version 1, is a network management protocol that
provides a means to monitor and control network devices.
v2c – Specifies that SNMP version 2c will be used. The SNMP v2c supports both
centralized and distributed network management strategies. It includes
improvements in the Structure of Management Information (SMI) and adds some
security features.
v3 – Specifies that the SNMP version 3 will be used. SNMP v3 provides secure
access to devices through a combination of authentication and encrypting packets
over the network. SNMP v3 adds:
Message integrity − Ensures that packets have not been tampered with during transit.
Authentication − Determines if an SNMP message is from a valid source.
Encryption − Scrambles the contents of messages to prevent it being viewed by an
unauthorized source.
noauth_nopriv − Specifies that there will be no authorization and no encryption of
packets sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manager.
auth_nopriv − Specifies that authorization will be required, but there will be no
encryption of packets sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manager.
auth_priv − Specifies that authorization will be required, and that packets sent
between the Switch and a remote SNMP manger will be encrypted.
read_view – Specifies that the SNMP group being created can request SNMP
messages.
write_view – Specifies that the SNMP group being created has write privileges.
notify_view − Specifies that the SNMP group being created can receive SNMP
trap messages generated by the Switch’s SNMP agent.
<view_name 32> − An alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters that is used to
identify the group of MIB objects that a remote SNMP manager is allowed to
access on the Switch.
Restrictions
None.
