Figure 3-24. Add Key screen.
Use the SNMPv3 SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), which is the standard security technology for establishing the encrypted link betwen
the ServSensor and the Web browser. The link ensures that all data passed between the ServSensor and the browser remains
private and integral.
SNMPv3 provides important security features:
• Confidentiality—Encrypts packets to prevent snooping by an unauthorized source.
• Integrity—Message integrity to ensure that a packet has not been tampered with in transmit.
• Authentication—To verify that the message is from a valid source.
