Configuring Remote
SNMPv3 Users
Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure User - Add SNMPv3 Remote User) page
to identify the source of SNMPv3 inform messages sent from the local switch. Each
SNMPv3 user is defined by a unique name. Users must be configured with a specific
security level and assigned to a group. The SNMPv3 group restricts users to a
specific read, write, and notify view.
Command Usage
◆ To grant management access to an SNMPv3 user on a remote device, you must
first specify the engine identifier for the SNMP agent on the remote device
where the user resides. The remote engine ID is used to compute the security
digest for authentication and encryption of packets passed between the switch
and the remote user. (See “Specifying Trap Managers” on page 422 and
“Specifying a Remote Engine ID” on page 405.)
