The syntax for credential data files imported through corresponding tabs on the Settings icon > Setup > Credentials page, and in the Setup Wizard's Setup Wizard: CLI Credentials, Setup Wizard: SNMPv1/2 Credentials, and Setup Wizard: SNMPv3 Credentials (Rare) steps, are described in this section.

For credential import, NetMRI accepts files exported from a credential settings table, ignoring any priority values in imported files. To specify a different collector in the import file, remove the UnitID column and update the Collector field. When importing credentials on an Operations Center, if no collector is specified in the import file, the credentials are applied to all collectors.

SNMP Credentials:

<community string>

SNMP Vendor Defaults:

<community string> <tab> <vendor name>

SNMPv3

SNMPv3 noAuthNoPriv credentials:

<snmpv3 user>

SNMPv3 authNoPriv credentials:

<snmpv3 user> <tab> <auth protocol> <tab> <auth password>

The authentication protocol is MD5 or SHA.

SNMPv3 authPriv credentials:

<snmpv3 user> <tab> <auth protocol> <tab> <auth password> <tab> <priv protocol> <tab>
<privacy password>

The encyption (privacy) protocol is 3des, aes-128, aes-192, aes-192C, aes-256, aes-256C, or des.

An example, with the second user being an authNoPriv credentials user:

dpadure   md5   test   3des   test

rgrace   sha   1authoEL2r#*$

johnson   md5   test   3des   test

All values are separated by hard tabs in the CSV file, which may be edited using a text editor.
