Add and edit SNMP credentials

Add and edit SNMP credentials

To streamline the management of SNMP credentials used in Inventory, Distribution, and Scripting, add those credentials to the Credentials Management page.

•
You have the information required for SNMP authentication.
•
You have administrator privileges in the Administrator Console

After you add credentials, you can select them on configuration pages instead of entering them manually each time. In addition, you can add credentials from any of the configuration pages that use them. Credentials added on configuration pages are automatically added to the Credentials Management page.

1.
Go to the Credentials Management page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, click Settings, then click Credentials.
2.
Select Choose Action > New.
3.
On the Add Credential form, provide the following information:

Option

Description

Name

A unique name for the credential. This name appears on the Credentials Management list and in the credential selection drop-down lists in component sections, such as Scripting. This name is used for identification in Administrator Console, and it is not part of the actual credential.

Type

The classification of the credential. Select SNMP to specify SNMP credentials.

4.
For SNMP v1 or v2c, provide the following information:

Option

Description

SNMP v1 or v2c

SNMP credentials that do not use authentication or encryption.

Community String

For SNMP v1 or v2c, the community string to query. The default is Public. The Public String is required for SNMP v1 or v2c.

Notes

Any additional information you want to provide about the credential.

5.
For SNMP v3, provide the following information:

Option

Description

SNMP v3

SNMP credentials that require authentication and encryption algorithms to increase security.

Security Name

For SNMP v3, the name of the USM (user-based security model) user account. This account, and any passwords required for authentication and encryption, must be set up on target devices.

Security Level

For SNMP v3, the level of security. Security levels include:

•
authPriv: The highest level of SNMP v3 security, which uses both authentication and encryption. To use this level, you must specify all the SNMP V3 Authentication and Privacy settings.
•
authNoPriv: The mid-range of SNMP v3 security, which uses authentication only. Communications are not encrypted. To use this level, you must specify the Authentication settings.
•
noAuthNoPriv: The lowest level of SNMP v3 security. Communications are not encrypted.

Authentication Password

For SNMP v3, the password used to authenticate communications when authPriv or authNoPriv security levels are selected. This password is associated with the USM user and must be set up on target devices.

Protocol

For SNMP v3, the protocol used for communications. Protocols include:

•
SHA: Secure hash algorithm, SHA-1.
•
MD5: Message Digest 5. Faster than SHA, but considered to be less secure.

Privacy Password

For SNMP v3, the password used to authenticate communications when the authPriv security level is selected. This password is associated with the USM user and must be set up on target devices.

Protocol

For SNMP v3, the protocol used for the privacy password. Protocols include:

•
DES: Data Encryption Standard. This algorithm has a 56-bit key size and is considered to be less secure than AES.
•
AES: Advanced Encryption Standard. The appliance supports the 128-bit key size.

Notes

Any additional information you want to provide about the credential.
