SNMP V3 User Configuration Settings
Field Description

Server

This setting displays as read only because you specified the server when you performed the find notification destination procedure.

To change the server where you want to provide access, perform the procedure to find an SNMP user.

User Name

In the field, enter the name of the user for which you want to provide access. The name can contain up to 32 characters and can contain any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens (-), and underscore characters (_).

Tip   

Enter users that you have already configured for the network management system (NMS).

For existing SNMP users, this setting displays as read only.

Authentication Required

To require authentication, check the check box, enter the password in the Password and Reenter Password fields, and choose the appropriate protocol. The password must contain at least 8 characters.

Privacy Required

If you checked the Authentication Required check box, you can specify privacy information. To require privacy, check the check box, enter the password in the Password and Reenter Password fields, and check the protocol check box. The password must contain at least 8 characters.

Tip   

After you check the Privacy Required check box, the DES (Data Encryption Standard) check box automatically appears checked. The DES protocol prevents packets from being disclosed.

Accept SNMP Packets from any host

To accept SNMP packets from any host, click the radio button.

Accept SNMP Packets only from these hosts

To accept SNMP packets from specific hosts, click the radio button. In the Host IP Address field, enter a host from which you want to accept SNMP packets and click Insert. Repeat this process for each host from which you want to accept SNMP packets. To delete a host, choose that host from the Host IP Addresses pane and click Remove.

Access Privileges

From the drop-down list box, choose one of the following options for the access level:
ReadOnly

The user can only read the values of MIB objects.

ReadWrite

The user can read and write the values of MIB objects.

ReadWriteNotify

The user can read and write the values of MIB objects and send MIB object values for a trap and inform messages.

NotifyOnly

The user can only send MIB object values for trap and inform messages.

ReadNotifyOnly

The user can read values of MIB objects and also send the values for trap and inform messages.

None

The user cannot read, write, or send trap information.

Tip   

To change the trap configuration parameters, you need to configure a user with NotifyOnly, ReadNotifyOnly, or ReadWriteNotify privileges.

Apply To All Nodes

To apply the user configuration to all nodes in the cluster, check this check box.

This applies to Cisco Unified Communications Manager and IM and Presence Service clusters only.
