How to configure SNMPv3 securely on ALU OS6450

[alcomint]

Can someone spare sometime and help in creating an account and configure snmpv3??

[devnull]

user mysnmpv3user password SNMPPASS123 read-write all sha+des
aaa authentication snmp local

thats all that is needed to access the switch with snmpv3 with the user "mysnmpv3user" and password "SNMPPASS123"
(Password has to be at least 8 chars otherwise snmpv3 will silently fail)

Thanks devnull, I am trying to access the switch through linux but I am failing again and again. how can I do that?

I actually have configured snmp without authentication:

status community string user name
--------+--------------------------------+--------------------------------
enabled private npprivate
enabled public nppublic

When I am trying to snmpwalk at cents terminal

snmpwalk -Os -c public -v 2c 178.13.240.48
Timeout: No Response from 178.13.240.48

snmp v3 without authentication? not possible.
but your command snmpwalk shows the answer: you use snmp v2
than try this one:

Code: Select all

> aaa authentication snmp local
> user OV-READ password OV-READ-PW read-only all no auth
> snmp community map public user OV-READ
> snmp security no security
