A family mask is used to define a family of view subtrees. The family mask indicates
which subidentifiers of the associated family OID string are significant to the family's
definition. A family of view subtrees enables efficient control access to one row in a
table.
Click Save. The view is added to the SNMPv3 Views list and your changes are saved to the
Startup Configuration.
To remove a view, select the view in the list and click Delete.
SNMPv3 groups allow you to combine users into groups of different authorization and access
privileges. Each group is associated with one of three security levels:
• noAuthNoPriv
• authNoPriv
• authPriv
Access to Management Information Bases (MIBs) for each group is controlled by associating
a MIB view to a group for read or write access, separately.
By default, the AP has two groups:
• RO—A read-only group using authentication and data encryption. Users in this group
use an MD5 key/password for authentication and a DES key/password for encryption.
Both the MD5 and DES key/passwords must be defined. By default, users of this group
have read access to the default all MIB view.
• RW—A read/write group using authentication and data encryption. Users in this group
use an MD5 key/password for authentication and a DES key/password for encryption.
Both the MD5 and DES key/passwords must be defined. By default, users of this group
have read and write access to the default all MIB view.
The default groups RO and RW cannot be deleted.
The AP supports a maximum of eight groups.
