Adds a user name (security name) to a group.
| hex_group_name | Specifies the group name to add or modify. The value is to be supplied as a colon separated string of hex octets. |
| group_name | Specifies the group name to add or modify in ASCII format. |
| hex_user_name | Specifies the user name to add or modify. The value to follow is to be supplies as a colon separated string of hex octets. |
| user_name | Specifies the user name to add or modify in ASCII format. |
| sec-model | Specifies the security model to use. |
| snmpv1 | Specifies the SNMPv1 security model. |
| snmpv2c | Specifies the SNMPv2c security model. |
| usm | Specifies the SNMPv3 User-based Security Model (USM). |
| volatile | Specifies volatile storage. |
sec-model—USM.
non-volatile storage.
Use this command to associate a user name with a group.
As per the SNMPv3 RFC, a security name is model independent while a username is model dependent. For simplicity, both are assumed to be same here. User names and security names are handled the same. In other words, if a user is created with the user name username, the security name value is the same, username.
Every group is uniquely identified by a security name and security model. So the same security name can be associated to a group name but with different security models.
The following command associates the user userV1 to the group defaultRoGroup with SNMPv1 security:
configure snmpv3 add group defaultRoGroup user userV1 sec-model snmpv1
The following command associates the user userv3 with security model USM and storage type volatile to the access group defaultRoGroup:
configure snmpv3 add group defaultRoGroup user userV3 volatile
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 10.1.
The hex_group_name and hex_user_name parameters were added in ExtremeXOS 11.0.
This command is available on ExtremeSwitching 5320, 5420, 5520, and 5720 series switches.
