View Content
The View Content screen allows the network manager to assign view attributes to views created in
the “View Content” screen. Views provide or block access to device features or portions of
features. For example, a view can be defined to provide a view that SNMP group A has Read Only
(R/O) access to Multicast groups, while SNMP group B has Read-Write (R/W) access to Multicast
groups. Feature access is granted via the MIB name or MIB Object ID.
To define the SNMP View Content:
1. Click System > SNMP > SNMPv3 > View Content. The SNMPv3 View Content screen
displays:

Views
• View Name – Select the user-defined view name. The view name can contain a maximum
of 30 alphanumeric characters.
• Object ID Subtree – Enter the device feature OID.
• View Type – Select whether the defined OID branch will be included in or excluded from
the selected SNMP view. The possible field values are:
– Included – Indicates the OID is included in the SNMP view.

2. Select the View Name from the list in the provided field in the Views table.
