configuring snmp V3 and V2 on Omniswitch at the same time

Post by zardoss »

hello everyone

I have a number of switches running 8.6.203.R02 that are already configured with snmp v3 and working fine

I am trying to add snmp v2 community without removing the V3 configuration.

Could someone please confirm this is possible on Alcatel switches ?

Currently I am getting these errors when I try with v2:
Error in packet.
Reason: authorizationError (access denied to that object)
Failed object: iso.3.6.1.2.1

Thanks

I found the way to configure V2 and V3 together, from the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide the command I need in my particular case is:

"snmp security authentication set"


no security The switch will accept all SNMP v1, v2, and v3 requests.

authentication set The switch will accept all requests except v1, v2, and non-authenticated
v3 set requests. SNMP v1, v2, and non-authenticated v3 set requests
will be rejected.

authentication all The switch will accept all requests except v1, v2, and non-authenticated
v3 get, get-next, and set requests. SNMP v1, v2, and non-authenticated
v3 get, get-next, and set requests will be rejected.

privacy set The switch will accept only authenticated SNMP v3 get, get-next and
encrypted v3 set requests. All other requests will be rejected.
privacy all The switch will accept only encrypted v3 get, get-next, and set requests.
All other requests will be rejected.

trap only All SNMP get, get-next, and set requests will be rejected.
