Configuring NMS login

Connect the Ethernet port of the PC to an Ethernet port of VLAN 1 of the device, as shown in Figure 28. Make sure the PC and VLAN 1 interface can reach each other.

Follow these steps to configure SNMPv3 settings:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enable SNMP agent

snmp-agent

Optional

Disabled by default.

You can enable SNMP agent with this command or any command that begins with snmp-agent.

Configure an SNMP group and specify its access right

snmp-agent group v3 group-name [ authentication | privacy ] [ read-view read-view ] [ write-view write-view ] [ notify-view notify-view ] [ acl acl-number ]

Required

By default, no SNMP group is configured.

Add a user to the SNMP group

snmp-agent usm-user v3 user-name group-name [ [ cipher ] authentication-mode { md5 | sha } auth-password [ privacy-mode { 3des | aes128 | des56 } priv-password ] ] [ acl acl-number ]

Required

If the cipher keyword is specified, both auth-password and priv-password are cipher text passwords.

Follow these steps to configure SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c settings:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Enter system view

system-view

Enable SNMP agent

snmp-agent

Optional

Disabled by default.

You can enable SNMP agent with this command or any command that begins with snmp-agent.

Create or update MIB view information

snmp-agent mib-view { excluded | included } view-name oid-tree [ mask mask-value ]

Optional

By default, the MIB view name is ViewDefault and OID is 1.

Configure SNMP NMS access right

Directly

Configure an SNMP community

snmp-agent community { read | write } community-name [ acl acl-number | mib-view view-name ]*

Required

Use either approach.

The direction configuration approach is for SNMPv1 or SNMPv2C. The community name configured on the NMS should be consistent with the username configured on the agent.

The indirect configuration approach is for SNMPv3.

Indirectly

Configure an SNMP group

snmp-agent group { v1 | v2c } group-name [ read-view read-view ] [ write-view write-view ] [ notify-view notify-view ] [ acl acl-number ]

Add a user to the SNMP group

snmp-agent usm-user { v1 | v2c } user-name group-name [ acl acl-number ]


[NOTE: ]

NOTE:

The device supports three SNMP versions: SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3. For more information about SNMP, see the Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.
