No Authentication/Privacy
This option represents neither an authentication nor privacy protocol.
Select this security level if you do not want to authenticate users and
you do not want to encrypt messages using a privacy protocol. This
security level provides the least security.
Note
If you have selected SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c as the Security Model,
you must select No Authentication/Privacy as the Security Level.
Authentication
This option represents authentication, but no privacy protocol. Select
this security level if you want to authenticate SNMP users, but you do
not want to encrypt messages using a privacy protocol.You can select
this value if you configured the Security Model parameter with the
SNMPv3 protocol.
Privacy
This option represents authentication and the privacy protocol. Select
this security level to allow authentication and encryption. This level
provides the greatest level of security. You can select this value if you
configured the Security Model parameter with the SNMPv3 protocol.
10. In the Storage Type parameter, select one of the following storage
types for this table entry:
Volatile
Select this storage type if you do not want the ability to save an entry in
the Target Parameters Table to the configuration file. After making
changes to an Target Parameters Table entry with a Volatile storage
type, the Save Config menu selection does not appear.
NonVolatile
Select this storage type if you want the ability to save an entry in the
Target Parameters Table to the configuration file. After making
changes to an Target Parameters Table entry with a NonVolatile
storage type, the Save Config menu selection appears.
Note
The Row Status parameter is a read-only field in the Web interface.
The Active value indicates the SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table
entry will take effect immediately.
