Configuring SNMPv1/v2c
SNMP is a network management protocol. SNMP version 1 (SNMPv1) is the first implementation of the
SNMP protocol. It operates over protocols including UDP, IP, and IPX.
SNMP version 2 (SNMPv2c) includes improvements in performance, confidentiality, and
manager-to-manager communications over SNMPv1, however it uses the simple-community based
security scheme of SNMPv1.

Configuring SNMPv3
SNMPv3 is the current standard version of SNMP defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
It provides three important security features:
•
Message integrity to ensure that a packet has not been tampered with in transit
•
Authentication to verify that the message is from a valid source
•
Encryption of packets to prevent unauthorized access
