Default login

When using Device Manager, there are default parameters in effect that you must use to initially log in when the SNMPv3 check box is enabled. For instructions on enabling the SNMPv3 check box, see Configuring Network Management and Diagnostics. These default parameters are also listed in the USM Table.

Note: To log on using SNMPv3, you must configure SNMPv3. See "Creating a user security model.

An SNMPv3 engine provides services for sending and receiving messages, authenticating and encrypting messages, and controlling access to managed objects. There is a one-to-one association between an SNMP engine and the SNMP entity, which contains it.

The following sections describe how to set up your SNMP configuration:
