SNMP V3 Not working

Hi,

I have cisco UCS 6200X. I want to set up SNMP v3 on it and add it to SOLARWINDS software.

But I can not add it to SOLARWINDS software with SNMP v3 and the problem. I tested in another software (snmpwalk) and it was still does not work. Is there a special configuration reqired?

Please help me.

regards

Greetings.

Common issues we see customers run into for SNMP V3 config:

• Creating SNMPV3 user account that is the same as another local account (i.e. admin)
• Cisco UCS Manager Release 3.2(3) and later releases do not supportSNMPv3 users without AES encryption.
  • make sure you enable AES-128 encryption
• Port 161 is not open on firewalls for Both FI nodes and VIP IP addresses
  • confirm you can reach the UCSM with SNMP v2, and a community string set.
  • run ethanalyizer on the Primary FI from the NXOS

    •  ethanalyzer local interface mgmt capture-filter "port 161" limit-captured-frames 0 detail

    • This should show if the snmp queries are even getting there, have the right community string, and if the UCSM is responding.
