Add or Edit an SNMP v3 User Account
To add or edit an SNMP v3 user account, follow these steps:
Note -
User accounts are not applicable to SNMP v1 and v2c because communities are used to control access.
-
Log in to the Oracle ILOM web interface.
-
On the left navigation panel, click ILOM Administration.
-
Then click Management Access > SNMP.
The SNMP Management page appears.
-
Click the Users link to expand the SNMP Settings page and display SNMP Users.
-
To add an SNMP user, click Add.
The Add User dialog box appears.

To edit an SNMP user, do the following:

Click the appropriate user radio button
-
Click Edit.
The Edit SNMP User Information dialog box appears.

If you are adding a user, type a user name in the User Name text field; otherwise proceed to the next step.
The user name can include up to 35 characters. It must start with an alphabetic character and cannot contain spaces.
-
In the Authentication Protocol drop-down list, select either Message Digest 5 (MD5) or Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA).
-
In the Authentication Password text field, type a password.
The authentication password is case-sensitive and must contain 8 to 16 characters, with no colons or space characters.
-
In the Confirm Password text field, retype the authentication password.
-
In the Permissions drop-down list, select read-only (ro) or read-write (rw).
-
(Optional) To specify a privacy protocol, perform the following steps:

In the Privacy Protocol list box, select DES (Digital Encryption Standard) or AES (Advanced Encryption Standard).
Note -
The AES privacy protocol option is available only for SNMPv3 as of ILOM 3.0.16.
-
In the Privacy Password text box, type a password for the privacy algorithm specified in Step 12a.
The privacy password is case-sensitive and must contain 8 to 16 characters, with no colons or space characters.
Note -
The privacy password is only required if you selected DES or AES in Step 12a.
-
In the Confirm Password field, retype the privacy password to ensure that it matches the privacy password specified in Step 12b.

Click Save to apply the SNMP user account properties.
