Auth No Priv.–Authenticates SNMP messages without encrypting them.
Auth Priv–Users are authenticated by the SNMPv3 entity before the entity allows the user
to access any of the values in the MIB objects on the agent. In addition, all of the
requests and responses from the management application to the SNMPv3 entity are
encrypted, so that all the data is completely secure.
- Context Prefix —(0-30 Characters - does not appear in all device’s screens). Specify this to
associate the performance information from the MIB objects with that Prefix. The Context
EngineID identifies the SNMP entity that should process the request (the physical router)
and the Context Prefix (Name) tells the agent in which context it should search for the
objects requested by the user or the management application.
-
Operation —Select from Default / DefaultSuper once you check to activate Read, Write and/or
Notify . The meaning of these values are:
Read–Select a view that restricts management access to viewing the contents of the agent.
If no view is selected, all objects except the community-table, SNMPv3 user and access
tables can be viewed.
Write —Select a view that permits management read-write access to the contents of the
agent but not to the community.
Notify–Select a view that permits sending SNMP traps or informs.
The Configure button at the bottom of this screen sends the selected configuration to the device.
The
Refresh button queries to update information displayed.
