Assigning SNMPv3 Users to Multiple Roles

The SNMP server user configuration is enhanced to accommodate multiple roles (groups) for SNMPv3 users. After the initial SNMPv3 user creation, you can map additional roles for the user.

Restrictions

• Only users belonging to a network-admin role can assign roles to other users.

Detailed Steps

To add multiple roles to a new user, follow these steps:

1. Expand Switches, expand Security, and then select Users and Roles from the Physical Attributes pane.
2. Click the Users tab in the Information pane to see a list of users.
3. Click Create Row.

You see the Create Users dialog box.

4. Choose roles using the check boxes.
5. Choose an option for Digest and one for Encryption.
6. (Optional) Provide an expiration date for the user and the file name of an SSH key.
7. Click Create to create the new roles.
