G8264 Application Guide for ENOS 8.4
SNMP version 3 (SNMPv3) is an enhanced version of the Simple Network
Management Protocol, approved by the Internet Engineering Steering Group in
March, 2002. SNMPv3 contains additional security and authentication features that
provide data origin authentication, data integrity checks, timeliness indicators and
encryption to protect against threats such as masquerade, modification of
information, message stream modification and disclosure.
SNMPv3 allows clients to query the MIBs securely.
SNMPv3 configuration is managed using the following command path menu:
RS G8264(config)# snmpserver ?
For more information on SNMP MIBs and the commands used to configure SNMP
on the switch, see the Lenovo Enterprise Network Operating System 8.4 Command
Reference.
Enterprise NOS has three SNMPv3 users by default. All the three users have access
to all the MIBs supported by the switch:
User 1 name is adminmd5 (password adminmd5). Authentication used is MD5.
Privacy protocol used is DES.
User 2 name is adminsha (password adminsha). Authentication used is SHA.
Privacy protocol used is DES.
User 3 name is adminshaaes (password Edpq132x!#9Zpx432w). Authentica‐
tion used is SHA. Privacy protocol used is AES‐128.
In boot strict mode (See "Boot Strict Mode" on page
SNMPv3 user:
User 1 name is adminshaaes (password Edpq132x!#9Zpx432w). Authentica‐
tion used is SHA. Privacy protocol used is AES‐128.
Up to 17 SNMP users can be configured on the switch. To modify an SNMP user,
enter the following commands:
RS G8264(config)# snmpserver user <1‐17> name <1‐32 characters>
Users can be configured to use the authentication/privacy options. The G8264
support two authentication algorithms: MD5 and SHA, as specified in the
following command:
RS G8264(config)# snmpserver user <1‐17> authenticationprotocol
{md5|sha} authenticationpassword
‐or‐
RS G8264(config)# snmpserver user <1‐17> authenticationprotocol
