For each group, you can assign read, write, and notify views of the MIB
table. The views you assign here have been previously defined in the
Configure SNMPv3 View Table menu. For example, the Read View allows
group members to view the specified portion of the OID MIB table. The
Write View allows group members to write to, or modify, the MIBs in the
specified MIB view. The Notify View allows group members to send trap
messages defined by the MIB view. Lastly, you can configure a storage
type for this table entry which allows you to save this view to flash
memory.
SNMPv3 SecurityToGroup Table
The Configure SNMPv3 SecurityToGroup Table menu allows you to
associate a User Name with a security group called a Group Name. The
User Name is previously configured with the Configure SNMPv3 User
Table menu. The security group is previously configured with the
Configure SNMPv3 Access Table menu. Lastly, you can configure a
storage type for this table entry which allows you to save the entry to
flash memory.
SNMPv3 Notify Table
The Configure SNMPv3 Notify Table menu allows you to define the type
of message that is sent from the switch to the SNMP host. In addition,
you have the option of defining the message type as either an Inform or
a Trap message. The difference between these two types of messages is
that when a switch sends an Inform message, the switch expects a
response from the host. In comparison, the switch does not expect the
host to respond to Trap messages.
In addition, you define a Notify Tag that links an SNMPv3 Notify Table
entry to the host IP address defined in the Configure SNMPv3 Target
Address Table menu. Lastly, you can configure a storage type for this
table entry which allows you to save the entry to flash memory.
SNMPv3 Target Address Table
The Configure SNMPv3 Target Address Table menu allows you to
configure the IP address of the host. Also, in an SNMPv3 Target Address
Table entry, you configure the values of the Tag List parameter with the
previously defined Notify Tag parameter values. The Notify Tag
parameter is configured in the Configure SNMPv3 Notify Table. In this
way, the Notify and Target Address tables are linked. Lastly, you can
configure a storage type for this table entry which allows you to save the
entry to flash memory.
