Cisco ironport snmp config

[cammy.busto]

Hi,

Can someone help me on snmpv3. What is authentication phrase and privacy phrase? Is it the password of solarwind or the community string?

I tried to configure snmp but solarwind cant see the traffic from ironport.

Please helo. Thanks a lot

SNMPv3 is different from the previous versions. In version 3 you no longer use community strings. Instead you specify a username with authentication password and possibly an encryption key. (depending on whether you just want to authenticate the SNMP traffic or also encrypt it).

So first on the Ironport appliance enable SNMP and configure the SNMPv3 user. Then go to SolarWinds and add your Ironport device with the SNMP user credentials you created.
