Set SNMPv3 in DCNM 6.2(5)

[RASHID]

Hello,

I have to setup DCNM for managing nexus 5000 and 7000 using snmp v3. But I find nothing in DCNM NOTE about how to set up the SNMP credentials MD5 and AES in DCNM.

When i go into admin > Data sources > lan , I can only setup the enable password and choose the Hash type (SHA, MD5) but no possible to enter the SNMP credentials.

When I go into admin > Server Properties, Section DATA SOURCES, only the SNMP default community can be set

Anyone can tell me what is the procedure to follow?

THANKS

Hi Rashid,

you need to first discover the device ,use the below link:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/sw/5_x/dcnm/fundamentals/configuration/guide/fund_dev_disc.html#wp1437324

rest all configuration need to be done via CLI:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus5000/sw/configuration/guide/cli/CLIConfigurationGuide/sm_snmp.html#wp1061002

hope it will help

Thanks-

Afroz

Thanks afrahmad for your response

So we don't need to configure the snmp user and credentials directly in the DCNM after configuring them into the nexus?
