CW2K user roles & CiscoView

I would like to tune user access to switches via CiscoView. But as far as I know CW2K user roles actually only apply to RME. SNMP communities in CiscoView on the other hand are applied gobally. So how could I configure CiscoView that some user can set SNMP variables on switches and others cannot ?

Thanx

try to define an ACL which permits specific hosts such as

ACCESS-LIST 1 PERMIT 10.10.10.10

and add this list to the end of SNMP community statement

SNMP-SERVER COMMUNITY READSNMP RO 1

SNMP-SERVER COMMUNITY WRITESNMP RW 1

Thanx

But how should that work? All SNMP request come from the CW2K server, no matter which user is using CiscoView. The user's request is send to the CW2K server via http or Java, and then the SNMP request is send to the switch.

User accounts set to the help desk priviliges do not have the ability to send an SNMP set command. The write SNMP community string line is grayed out when they go to a device so even if they know the write community string, it will do them no good. The other main user roles can send set requests.
