4.1.4 Using SNMP Contexts to Access Specific MIBs
By default, when operating from the switch CLI, SecureStack B2 devices allow access to all SNMP
MIBs or contexts. A context is a collection of MIB objects, often associated with a particular
physical or logical device.
If no optional context parameters are configured for v1 and v2 “community” names and v3 “user”
groups, these groups are able to access all SNMP MIB objects when in switch mode.
Specifying a context parameter when setting up SNMP user group would permit or restrict the
group’s switch management access to the MIB(s) specified by the context (MIB object ID) value.
All SNMP contexts known to the device can be displayed using the show snmp context command
as described in Section 4.3.4.2.
Example
This example permits the “powergroup” to manage all MIBs via SNMPv3:
B2(rw)->set snmp access powergroup security-model usm
