Section IV: SNMPv3

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter Subtree Mask (Hex format):

6. Enter a subtree mask in hexadecimal format.

This is an optional parameter that is used to further refine the value in
the View Subtree parameter. This parameter is in binary format.

The relationship between a subtree mask and a subtree is similar to
the relationship between an IP address and a subnet mask. The
subnet mask further refines the IP address. In the same way, the OID
table entry defines a MIB View and the subtree mask further restricts a
user’s view to a specific the column and row of the MIB View. The
value of the Subnet Mask parameter is dependent on the subtree you
select. For example, if you configure the View Subtree parameter as
MIB, ifEntry.0.3 has the following value:

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.0.3

To restrict the user’s view to the third row (all columns) of the ifEntry
MIB, enter the following value for the Subtree Mask parameter

ff:bf

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter View Type [I-Included, E-Excluded]:

7. Enter one of the following view types:

I - Included
Enter this value to permit the View Name to see the subtree specified
above.

E - Excluded
Enter this value to not permit the View Name to see the subtree
specified above.

The following prompt is displayed:

Enter Storage Type [V-Volatile, N-NonVolatile]:

8. Select one of the following storage types for this table entry:

V - Volatile
Select this storage type if you do not want the ability to save an entry in
the SNMPv3 View Table to the configuration file. After making changes
to an SNMPv3 View Table entry with a Volatile storage type, the S -
Save Configuration Changes option does not appear on the Main
Menu.
