SNMPv3 protocol configuration options
You can configure a log source to use the SNMPv3 protocol to receive SNMPv3 events.
The SNMPv3 protocol is an inbound/passive protocol.
The following table describes the protocol-specific parameters for the SNMPv3
protocol:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Protocol Configuration | SNMPv3 |
Log Source Identifier |
Type a unique name for the log source. |
Authentication Protocol | The algorithm that you want to use to authenticate
SNMPv3 traps:
|
Authentication Password | The password to authenticate SNMPv3. Your authentication password must include a minimum of 8 characters. |
Decryption Protocol | Select the algorithm that you want to use to decrypt the SNMPv3 traps.
Note: If you select AES192 or AES256 as your decryption algorithm, you must install the Java™ Cryptography Extension. For more information about installing
the Java Cryptography Extension on McAfee ePolicy
Orchestrator, see Installing the Java Cryptography Extension.
|
Decryption Password | The password to decrypt SNMPv3 traps. Your decryption password must include a minimum of 8 characters. |
User | The user name that was used to configure SNMPv3 on your appliance |
Include OIDs in Event Payload | Specifies that the SNMP event payload is
constructed by using name-value pairs instead of the standard event payload format. When you select
specific log sources from the Log Source Types list, OIDs in the event
payload are required for processing SNMPv2 or SNMPv3 events. Important: You must include OIDs in the event payload for processing SNMPv3 events for
McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator.
