RE: snmpv3 problem when configured for view....

Hi,

 

Group directive does mapping the Group name to Security name.  But you
have used other securityname (readable) and trying query with raghu. I
hope you know that security name is same as the v3 user-name.

 

ie you should have the following entry in your snmpd.conf 

 

group   mygroup        usm      raghu

 

Thanks,

Mahesh

Subject: snmpv3 problem when configured for view....

 

Hi All,

 

    I am using net-snmp-5.3.0.1. my /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf
file has following configuration

 

#-----------------snmpd.conf file begins-----------------------   

 

#         viewname    incl/excl          OID

 view    test-view     included          system

 

#       groupName      securityModel securityName
group   mygroup        usm            readable

 

#       group   context sec.model sec.level prefix read   write  notify
access  mygroup ""      usm       auth    exact  test-view    none
none

 

#user configuration
authuser read raghu  auth -v test-view

#-----------------snmpd.conf file ends-----------------------   

 

my /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf has following line

createUser raghu MD5 testraghu DES testraghu

 

which ofcourse gets encrypted after enabling snmpd(which is enabled on
192.168.31.14). The problem that I have here is I am doing snmpget which
is not giving the expected output. I am executing snmpget from
192.168.31.199. command and output as goes below.

 

snmpget -v 3 -u raghu -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A testraghu 192.168.31.14
sysUpTime.0
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = No Such Object available on this
agent at this OID

Can any one tell me what is wrong in this configuration file. If I
remove -v test-view from user it works fine but it does not serve any
purpose.

 

 

Regards,

Raghavendra. S
