Configuring the SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table

This section contains a description of the SNMPv3 Target Parameters
Table and how to create, delete, and modify table entries. The SNMPv3
Target Parameters Table links the user security information with the
message notification information configured in the Configure SNMPv3
Notify Table menu and Configure SNMPv3 Target Address Table menu.

In the SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table, you specify the SNMP
parameters that are used when a message is generated to a target, or
host, IP address. The SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table also links a User
Name and its related security information, called user security
information, with a host. The user security information consists of the
following parameters listed in the SNMPv3 tables where they are
configured:

❑ User Name parameter configured in the SNMPv3 User Table menu

❑ View Name parameter configured in the SNMPv3 View Table

menu

❑ Group Name, Security Model, and Security Level parameters

configured in the SNMPv3 Access Table

❑ User Name, Security Model, and Group Name configured in the

SNMPv3 SecurityToGroup Table

When you enter user security information in an SNMPv3 Target
Parameters Table entry, the information must match the configuration
in the SNMPv3 tables listed above. If the user security information in the
SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table entry does not match the
configuration in the tables listed above, messages are not sent on behalf
of the user.

Note

In the SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table, the Security Name
parameter is the equivalent to the User Name parameter in the
SNMPv3 User Table.

For each Target Address Table entry, you can configure:

❑ Target Parameters Name

❑ Security Name (User Name)

❑ Security Model

❑ Security Level
