Manage Security

To effectively provide system security for a variety of network applications, the DMM works
with Radius, SSH, and SNMPv3. For a brief discussion of security options, see page 1-4. To set
up DMM security, first set up the associated server(s); for details, see the documentation for the
server and software.

• To use a Radius server, you must specify the IP address for the DMM and the Shared Secret

that will authenticate communication between the DMM and the Radius server.

• To communicate with an SSH server, you must first download the SSH Client to your PC and

test connectivity.

• To use SNMPv3 security, set up the engine ID for the SNMPv3 agent in the device.

As you set up values for various security parameters on your DMM, see the documentation for
your network security system for details on and values for those security parameters. Typically,
you must have supervisor access to set up security for the DMM.

Set General Security Parameters

General security parameters include values for passwords, lockout, and logout, which are basic to
maintaining security regardless of which security application runs on your network. To set values
for general parameters, access the Security Configuration screen and follow these steps:
