Verifying the configuration

After the configuration, an SNMP connection is established between the NMS and the agent. The

NMS can get and configure the values of some parameters on the agent through MIB nodes.

Shut down or bring up an idle interface on the agent, and the NMS receives the corresponding
trap.

SNMPv3 configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 284

, the NMS (1.1.1.2/24) uses SNMPv3 to monitor and manage the interface status

of the agent (1.1.1.1/24), and the agent automatically sends traps to report events to the NMS.
The NMS and the agent perform authentication when they set up an SNMP session. The authentication

algorithm is MD5 and the authentication key is authkey. The NMS and the agent also encrypt the SNMP
packets between them by using the DES algorithm and the privacy key prikey.
