The first part of the Access control page allows the creation and deletion of SNMP V1 and V2c
community names.

The Community Name field selects the name of the community. The Access field determines
whether the community is read-only or read/write. The Source IP field may be used to specify an IP
address or range (e.g. 10.0.0.0/24) from which access to this community name may be made. The
OID field further restricts access to an Object Identifier (OID) tree at or below a specified OID.

The second part of the Access control menu allows creation and deletion of V3 users.

The User Name field selects the name of the new user.

The Access field determines whether the community is read-only or read/write.

The Minimum Security field selects the level of security used by this user. It may be No Authentication
(no authentication or encryption), Authentication Only (authentication by MD5 or SHA1 authentication
methods, no encryption) or Authentication with Privacy ( authentication by MD5 or SHA1, encryption
by DES or AES ciphers).

The OID field further restricts access to an Object Identifier (OID) tree at or below a specified OID.

The Authentication Protocol, Authentication Passphrase, Privacy Protocol and Privacy
Passphrase
fields configure the protocols and passphrases used depending on the Minimum
Security
field. These settings are shared between agent and remote user.

Note that if authentication and privacy are both used, but only the authentication passphrase is
provided, snmpd will use the authentication passphrase as the privacy passphrase.

Note also that if any notifications are enabled, a read-only user named internal will be automatically
created to satisfy the requirements of the event MIB.
