Figure 6- 29. SNMP Group Table Configuration window
The following parameters can be set:
Parameter Description
Group Name Type an alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters. This is used to identify the new SNMP
group of SNMP users.
Read View Name
This name is used to specify that the SNMP group created can request SNMP messages.
Write View Name Specify a SNMP group name for users that are allowed SNMP write privileges to the Switch's
SNMP agent.
Notify View Name Specify a SNMP group name for users that can receive SNMP trap messages generated by
the Switch's SNMP agent.
Security Model
SNMPv1 - Specifies that SNMP version 1 will be used.
SNMPv2 - Specifies that SNMP version 2c will be used. The SNMPv2 supports both
centralized and distributed network management strategies. It includes improvements in the
Structure of Management Information (SMI) and adds some security features.
SNMPv3 - Specifies that the SNMP version 3 will be used. SNMPv3 provides secure access
to devices through a combination of authentication and encrypting packets over the network.
Security Level
The Security Level settings only apply to SNMPv3.
NoAuthNoPriv - Specifies that there will be no authentication and no encryption of packets
sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manager.
AuthNoPriv - Specifies that authentication will be required, but there will be no encryption of
packets sent between the Switch and a remote SNMP manager.
AuthPriv - Specifies that authentication will be required, and that packets sent between the
Switch and a remote SNMP manger will be encrypted.

SNMP Community Table Configuration
Use this table to create an SNMP community string to define the relationship between the SNMP manager and an agent. The
community string acts like a password to permit access to the agent on the Switch. One or more of the following characteristics
can be associated with the community string:
• An Access List of IP addresses of SNMP managers that are permitted to use the community string to gain access to the
Switch's SNMP agent.
• Any MIB view that defines the subset of all MIB objects will be accessible to the SNMP community.
• Read/write or read-only level permission for the MIB objects accessible to the SNMP community.
