SNMP Protocol Versions

An SNMP Manager can use either SNMPv3 or SNMPv2.

  • v3 supports authentication, using user names and passphrases. Oracle recommends SNMPv3.

  • v2 does not support authentication and does not use user names and passphrases.

    KMAs do not send SNMP informs to SNMP Managers configured to use SNMPv2 if the replication version of the OKM cluster is currently set to 10 or lower.
