Create an SNMP v2c User
If you are using SNMP v2c, define a community string.
Requirements
- STA supports only one SNMP v2c community string. You should define a unique community string for this purpose, and then define this same community string on all libraries monitored by that STA instance.
- Do not use the values "public" or "private" for the STA community string, as these values are well known and present a security risk. Use values that are not easily discoverable. The community string can only contain alphanumeric characters (a–z, A–Z, 0–9). Special characters are not allowed.
- If a library includes a community string set to "public", do not remove it without first consulting Oracle Support. In some cases, a community string with this value is required for Oracle Service Delivery Platform (SDP).
SL500, SL3000, and SL8500
-
Using CLI, add the SNMP v2c user.
> snmp addUser version v2c community community_name
Where
community_name
is the SNMP v2c user community string. For example:SL3000> snmp addUser version v2c community stasnmp
-
List the SNMP users to verify that the SNMP v2c user has been added correctly.
> snmp listUsers
