Configuring the SNMPv3 Community Table
This section contains a description of the SNMPv3 Community Table and
how to create, delete, and modify table entries. The SNMPv3 Community
Table allows you to create SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c Communities using the
SNMPv3 Tables.
Allied Telesyn does not recommend that you use the menu described in
this section to configure SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c communities. Instead,
use the procedures described in “Enabling or Disabling SNMP
Management” on page 107.
However, if you want to configure SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c with the
SNMPv3 Tables you need to start your configuration with the SNMPv3
Community Table and then create entries in the following tables:
ˆ SNMPv3 View Table—See “Creating an SNMPv3 View Table Entry” on
page 432.
ˆ SNMPv3 Access Table—See “Creating an SNMPv3 Access Table
Entry” on page 441.
ˆ SNMPv3 SecurityToGroup Table—See “Creating an SNMPv3
SecurityToGroup Table Entry” on page 456.
ˆ SNMPv3 Notify Table—See “Configuring the SNMPv3 Notify Table” on
page 464.
ˆ SNMPv3 Target Address Table—See “Creating an SNMPv3 Target
Address Table Entry” on page 471.
ˆ SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table—See “Creating an SNMPv3 Target
Parameters Table Entry” on page 485.
Note that you do not create an entry in the SNMPv3 User Table when you
are configuring SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c with the SNMPv3 Tables. When
you configure the SNMPv3 protocol, the various tables are linked with the
User Name parameter and its related information. With the SNMPv1 and
SNMPv2c configuration, the Security Name parameter and its related
information (configured in the SNMPv3 Community Table menu) links an
SNMPv3 Community Table entry to the other SNMPv3 Table entries.
Note
In the SNMPv3 Community Table entry, the Security Name
parameter is not related to the User Name parameter.
For each SNMPv3 Community Table entry, you can configure the
following parameters:
ˆ Community Index
ˆ Community Name
