Hi,

 

I developed a "snmpd" application using netsnmp library and sending the
trap from sub-agent to snmpd application by using the following command

#snmptrap -v 3 -u MD5User -e 0x1020304050 -a MD5 -A "The Net-SNMP Demo
Password" -l authNoPriv 10.140.185.252 <trap oid>

 

While debugging , found the following error msg in snmpd application.

snmp_parse: Parsed SNMPv3 message (secName:MD5User,
secLevel:authNoPriv): USM unknown security name (no such user exists)

 

In my snmpd application, I don't use any USM/VACM API's to read the
following configuration. Please let me know what methods I have to use
read the configuration file. 

 

I have the following configuration in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf.

# cat /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf

########################################################################
#######

#

# snmpd.conf:

#   An example configuration file for configuring the ucd-snmp snmpd
agent.

#

########################################################################
#######

########################################################################
#######

# User

########################################################################
#######

createUser MD5User -e 0x1020304050 MD5 "The Net-SNMP Demo Password"

 

########################################################################
#######

# Access Control

########################################################################
#######

####

# First, map the community name "public" into a "security name"

 

#       sec.name  source          community

com2sec MD5User  default          v3_private

####

# Second, map the security name into a group name:

 

#       groupName      securityModel securityName

group   md5_group      usm           MD5User

####

# Third, create a view for us to let the group have rights to:

 

# Make at least  snmpwalk -v 1 localhost -c public system fast again.

#       name           incl/excl     subtree         mask(optional)

view    md5_view       included   .1.3.6.1.2.1.1

view    md5_view       included   .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1

####

# Finally, grant the group read-only access to the systemview view.

 

#       group          context sec.model sec.level prefix read   write
notif

access  md5_group      ""      any       authNoPriv  exact  md5_view all
all
