1 Introduction
This document describes how to create an SNMPv3 target. An SNMPv3 target is created to forward Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) notifications to a management system over the SNMPv3 protocol.
1.1 Prerequisites
This section describes the prerequisites, which must be fulfilled before using the procedure.
1.1.1 Conditions
The following conditions must apply:
- The target IP address is known and according to the network IP plan.
- The new attribute values of Managed Object (MO) SnmpTargetV3 are known.
- The SnmpSecurityName of SnmpTargetV3 must be unique for each v3 target.
- An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) session in Exec mode is in progress.
2 Procedure
To create an SNMPv3 target:
- Navigate to the Snmp MO, for example:
>dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,SysM=1,Snmp=1
- Enter Config mode:
(Snmp=1)>configure
- Create an SNMPv3 target, for example:
(config-Snmp=1)>SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3
- For the SnmpTargetV3 MO,
set the attributes, for example:
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>snmpSecurityLevel=AUTH_PRIV
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>privProtocol=DES
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>authProtocol=MD5
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>user="user1"
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>address="192.0.2.10"
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>port=1162
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>privKey="myprivatekey" cleartext
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>authKey="myauthorizationkey" cleartext
- Commit the settings:
(config-SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>commit
- Verify the settings:
(SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3)>show -v
The following is an example output:
SnmpTargetV3=OSS_v3 address="192.0.2.10" administrativeState=UNLOCKED <default> authKey="myauthorizationkey" authProtocol=MD5 <default> informRetryCount=1 <default> informTimeout=300 <default> isMibWritable=true <default> operationalState=ENABLED <read-only> port=1162 privKey="myprivatekey" privProtocol=DES <default> snmpSecurityLevel=AUTH_PRIV <default> snmpTargetV3Id=OSS_v3 transportMethod=TRAP <default> user="user1"
