Abstract

This paper describes an experimental study of the security in the management or monitoring of information from a host or teams of networks through the protocol SNMP in version 3, that is characterized in regards to security authentication and access control. There is also developed an Management Information Base (MIB) in ASNI language which will be read and written using the SNMPv3 protocol in which is observed the authentication based on the user. Finally some configurations are illustrated and results obtained from the study.
