Defining SNMP Groups

The SNMP Group Page provides information for creating SNMP groups, and assigning

SNMP access control privileges to SNMP groups. Groups allow network managers to assign

access rights to specific device features, or feature aspects.

To define an SNMP group:

1. Click SNMP > Groups. The SNMP Group Page opens:

Figure 102:SNMP Group Page

The SNMP Group Page contains the following fields:

• Group Name — Displays the user-defined group to which access control rules are applied. The field range is

up to 30 characters.

• Security Model — Defines the SNMP version attached to the group. The possible field values are:

– SNMPv1 — SNMPv1 is defined for the group.

– SNMPv2 — SNMPv2 is defined for the group.

– SNMPv3 — SNMPv3 is defined for the group.

• Security Level — Defines the security level attached to the group. Security levels apply to SNMPv3 only.

The possible field values are:

– No Authentication — Indicates that neither the Authentication nor the Privacy security levels are

assigned to the group.

– Authentication — Authenticates SNMP messages, and ensures that the SNMP message’s origin is

authenticated.

– Privacy — Encrypts SNMP messages.

• Operation — Defines the group access rights. The possible field values are:

– Read — Management access is restricted to read-only, and changes cannot be made to the assigned

SNMP view.
