SNMPv1 Configuration Parameters
The agent supports six communities and associated trap recipients and trap recipient severity level
supported. The first three communities are for read-write (rw) access and the last three are for
read-only (ro) access. The default value for the trap recipient of each community is 0.0.0.0. The
length of the community string should be in range of 2 to 16 characters. The default values for the
community strings are:
Community 1: Secret C0de
Community 2: OrigEquipMfr
Community 3: private
Community 4: public
Community 5: common
Community 6: FibreChannel
When FCS policy s enabled, community strings can be changed on the primary FCS switch only, and
only the primary FCS switch propagates changes across the fabric.
For an SNMP management station to receive a trap generated by the agent, the administrator must
configure a trap recipient to correspond to the IP address of the management station. In addition,
the trap recipient must be able to pass the access control list (ACL) check as described in the
Access Control category.
Trap Recipient Severity Level
When an event occurs and its severity level is at or below the set value, the Event Trap traps
(swEventTrap, connUnitEventTrap and swFabricWatchTrap), are sent to configured trap recipients.
By default, this value is set at 0, implying that no Event Trap is sent. Possible values are
0None

SNMPv3 Configuration Parameters
Two user roles, snmpadmin and snmpuser are supported. snmpadmin provides read-write access
and snmpuser provides read-only access. Entries are added to the USM table corresponding to
each role. A total of three entries for snmpadmin and snmpuser respectively are supported.
Separate default passwords are provided for creation of authKey and privKey for each entry. The
default set of passwords is published and the default algorithm (MD5/SHA) is used to create the
initial set of auth keys. You can change these passwords using this option. You have the option to
select the authentication protocol MD5/SHA or no authentication for each entry.
Select the following combination of protocols:
NoAuth/NoPriv
Auth/NoPriv
Auth/Priv
