COURSE OVERVIEW

SNMPv3 Training or Simple Network Management Protocol v3 (SNMPv3) Training: SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c both provide “community string” security, also called “Trivial Authentication”.  SNMPv3 offers significant improvements.  The SNMPv3 architecture incorporates new descriptions for SNMP Entities (Managers, Agents, Proxy Forwarders), updated message formats, and Standard MIBs used to configure access to Entities.  New features include User authentication using entity-shared secret keys, along with message time stamps; data secrecy using encryption; and control of user access to MIB information based on the need to know.

SNMPv3 messages can be sent at any of the following three levels of security:

  • No Authentication and No Encryption. Also called “noAuth/noPriv”, “Priv” refers to Privacy.  Only a valid User Name is required to access data or to send a trap.
  • Authentication and No Encryption are also called “Auth/noPriv”. The User must be authenticated as a valid user for the message to be accepted.  This is accomplished by sharing a secret key and using that key to produce a message-hashed authentication code sent with each message.
  • Authentication and Encryption are also called “Auth/Priv”. The User is authenticated and the data payload is encrypted using a second shared secret key.

SNMPv3’s View Access Control Model (VACM) is used to control access to specific MIB data. Individual users are configured into groups, and groups might have the following privileges.  Only Security Administrators can access the MIB data to configure SNMPv3 MIBs at remotely managed agents.  Microwave Engineers can control remote microwave radios, including the ability to reboot them if necessary.  The report generator group can access appropriate read-only data as needed.

This intensive, one-day SNMPv3 Training – Simple Network Management Protocol v3 (SNMPv3) Training, the second of our three-course series on SNMP, outlines the new message formats, the SNMPv3 configuration MIBs and related RFCs, and describes the relationships.    It will help you understand the threats addressed by SNMPv3, and the methods used to counter those threats.
