Passwords
Select
Passwords
to display the
Password Settings
screen for
specifying authentication and password settings for an SNMP v3
user. The maximum password length is 11 characters. Use the
Authentication Algorithm
drop-down menu to specify
MD5
or
SHA1
as the authentication algorithm. Use the Privacy Algorithm
drop-down menu to define an algorithm of
DES
or
AES-128bit
.
When entering the same username on the
SNMP Traps
and
SNMP Access
screens, the password entered on the SNMP Traps
page overwrites the password entered on the SNMP Access page.
To avoid this problem, enter the same password on both pages.
Access
Use the
Access
pull-down list to specify read-only (R) access or
read/write (RW) access for a user. Read-only access permits a user
to retrieve
AP-5131
information, while read/write access allows a
user to modify
AP-5131
settings.
SNMP Access Control Click the
SNMP Access Control
button to display the
SNMP
Access Control
screen for specifying which users can read
SNMP-generated information and potentially modify related
settings from an SNMP-capable client.
The SNMP Access Control screen's Access Control List (ACL) uses
Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to restrict access to the AP’s SNMP
interface. The ACL applies to both SNMP v3 user definitions and
SNMP v1/v2c community definitions.

modification privileges, see

destination ID when sending get, getnext, getbulk, set or inform
commands.
