Technical DocumentIntroductionThis document explains how to set up SNMPv3 credentials in a PRTG Network Monitorenvironment for communications with NuDesign SNMPv3 Agent Service.ConfigurationWhen initially run, PRTG Network Monitor runs it's Discovery Wizard which finds managementobjects within your network. PRTG Network Monitor comes configured to discover objectswhich can communicate using SNMPv1 with a community string of 'public'.From any node in the Device view at which you wish to establish SNMPv3 credentials, rightclick on the node and select 'Edit'. From the next menu select 'Settings'. From thesubsequent page, scroll down until you see the'CREDENTIALS FOR SNMP DEVICES'section. Uncheck the entry and you should see something line the following .Note: the entries, above and below, are based on the default configuration of theNuDesign SNMPv3 Agent Service. If you have changed its configuration, you will haveto substitute with the same credentials you changed to.This document is provided for informational purposes only, 'as is' and without warranty of any kind.

Technical DocumentFor "SNMP Version", select "v3".For "Authentication Type", select "SHA"For USM "User" specify "shaaes" and for authentication 'password' is "shaaesauth".For “Encryption Type”, select "AES", for "Data Encryption Key" enter "shaaespriv".Leave the other fields at defaults, including “Context Name”, leaving it empty.As noted earlier, the example configuration above is based on the default configuration for aNuDesign SNMPv3 agent service. NuDesign agents ship with the following pre-configured*USM sSHAshaaesauthAESshaaesprivPasswordPasswordnone* These users are supplied for evaluation purposes only. They are NOT suggested for aproduction environment.User "shaaes", as used in the above example, is mapped to "grpAll" in theVacmSecurityToGroupTable. This gives any SNMPv3 messages using these parameters"read-write" access.Read/Write SNMPv3 Credentials:SNMPv3 Username: shaaesSNMPv3 Context:SNMPv3 AuthenticationMethod: SHAPassword Key: shaaesauthSNMPv3 Privacy/EncryptionMethod: AES128Password Key: shaaesprivNormally, 'Context' is a zero length string, i.e. leave SNMPv3 Context field empty.This document is provided for informational purposes only, 'as is' and without warranty of any kind.
