Add an SNMP Service User Account (Oracle ILOM CLI)

SNMP user accounts are supported in SNMP v3 only. The user account can be from 1 to 32 characters long.

  1. Decide whether the user requires a privacy protocol.
  2. Add an SNMP user.
    -> create /SP/services/snmp/users/username authenticationpassword=password privacyprotocol=protocol 
    

    where:

    • username is the name of the SNMP user.

    • password is the password used for authentication. The authentication password is 8 to 13 characters long.


      Note -  To add an SNMP user without a privacy protocol, you must explicitly set the privacyprotocol option to none.

    For example, to create an SNMP user with the name of snmpuser, the password of changeme and no privacy protocol, type:

    -> create /SP/services/snmp/users/snmpuser authenticationpassword=changeme privacyprotocol=none
    Created /SP/services/snmp/users/snmpuser
    ->
    

    Note -  By default, new users are given read-only permissions and no privacy protocol.
  3. Configure the user with a privacy protocol and password.
    -> set /SP/services/snmp/users/snmpuser privacyprotocol=DES privacypassword=password authenticationpassword=password
    

    Note -  The privacy password must be exactly 8 characters in length.

    For example, to configure the snmpuser with the DES protocol and privacy password of changeme, type:

    -> set /SP/services/snmp/users/snmpuser privacyprotocol=DES privacypassword=changeme authenticationpassword=changeme
    Set 'privacyprotocol' to 'DES'
    Set 'privacypassword' to 'changeme'
    Set 'authenticationpassword' to 'changeme'
    User /SP/services/snmp/users/snmpuser properties were updated successfully
    ->
