Authentication Table Entries
You create, alter the attributes of, activate, inactivate, and remove rows in the
SNMP agent’s private MIB zagInProfileTable to manage the authentication table
entries that the SNMP agent uses for accepting or rejecting request messages
received through TCP/IP. Each row in the zagInProfileTable corresponds to an
SCF PROFILE object.
Note. Because of security issues, zagInProfile group objects can be accessed only
through SNMP requests received though NonStop Kernel IPC calls. Requests for
operations on objects in the zagInProfile group are performed only if the PAID of the
manager process is compatible with that of the agent process. For more details, see
Figure 2-5
, the authentication table permits the SNMP agent to accept Get and GetNext
requests from any SNMP manager belonging to the “public” community, as well as Set
requests sent under the “Private” community from the SNMP manager whose address is
130.252.15.230. The zagInProfile group objects are not accessible through TCP/IP’s UDP
transport protocol. The zagInProfileTable objects can also be created and managed
through SCF as PROFILE objects.
