 ArubaOS CX SNMPv3



(1) snmp default community is public, make sure to define another community, e.g. companypub

switch(config)# snmp-server community companypub



(2) Create an SNMPv3 user using SHA for authentication and AES for privacy:

switch(config)# snmpv3 user checkmk-monitoring auth sha auth-pass  plaintext passAuth01 priv aes priv-pass plaintext passAuth02



(3) create an SNMPv3 context with the community name created above and assigned to the mgmt VRF:

switch(config)# snmpv3 context snmpv3mgmt vrf mgmt community companypub



(4) Enable SNMP on the VRF, that is used for switch monitoring:

switch(config)# snmp-server vrf mgmt



(5) optional

Disable support for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c and only accept SNMPv3 messages using the following command:

switch(config)# snmp-server snmpv3-only



(6) run a test ;-)

snmpwalk -v 3 -l authPriv -u checkmk-monitoring -a SHA -A passAuth01 -x AES -X passAuth02 192.168.100.100
