Section III: SNMPv3

The value of the Community Name parameter acts as a password for
the SNMPv3 Community Table entry. This parameter is case sensitive.

Note

Allied Telesyn recommends that you select SNMP Community
Names carefully to ensure these names are known only to
authorized personnel.

7. In the Security Name field, enter a name of an SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c

user.

This name must be unique. Enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric
characters.

Note

Do not use a value configured with the User Name parameter in the
SNMPv3 User Table.

8. In the Transport Tag field, enter a name of up to 32 alphanumeric

characters.

The Transport Tag parameter links an SNMPv3 Community Table
entry with an SNMPv3 Target Address Table entry. Add the value you
configure for the Transport Tag parameter to the Tag List parameter in
the Target Address Table as desired. See “Creating a Target Address
Table Entry” on page 268.

9. In the Storage Type field, select one of the following storage types for

this table entry:

Volatile
Select this storage type if you do not want the ability to save an entry in
the SNMPv3 Community Table. After making changes to an SNMPv3
Community Table entry with a Volatile storage type, the Save Config
option is not displayed on the Configuration menu.

NonVolatile
Select this storage type if you want the ability to save an entry in the
SNMPv3 Community Table. After making changes to an SNMPv3
Community Table entry with a NonVolatile storage type, the Save
Config
option is displayed on the Configuration menu. Allied Telesyn
recommends this storage type.
