HP Web Jetadmin can discover devices that have SNMPv3 fully enabled. However, you must congure
HP Web Jetadmin to discover SNMPv3-enabled devices. For more information, see Congure the General
Settings for Device Discoveries on page 64.
To discover SNMPv3-enabled devices, HP Web Jetadmin requires the SNMPv3 credentials for the devices.
HP Web Jetadmin detects SNMPv3 credentials for devices in the following ways:
●
SNMPv3 is enabled in HP Web Jetadmin and SNMPv3 credentials are congured on the devices. In this case,
HP Web Jetadmin stores the credentials in its credentials store, and then uses these credentials when
communicating with the devices.
●
SNMPv3 credentials are added to the HP Web Jetadmin global credentials store and these global
credentials match the credentials on the devices. In this case, when HP Web Jetadmin communicates with
an SNMPv3-enabled device, it tries the values in the global credentials store. If the global credential values
are valid and HP Web Jetadmin can communicate with the device, the credential values are stored on each
device.
Devices that HP Web Jetadmin discovers through SNMPv1 and have SNMPv3 enabled through some other
method, such as the HP Embedded Web Server or another instance of HP Web Jetadmin, have a Device
Communication Error status when HP Web Jetadmin attempts to re-establish communication. To reset these
devices to SNMPv3-enabled, use the Refresh Selection command in the device list.
Add SNMPv3 credentials
1. Go to Tools > Options > Shared > Credentials > Device > SNMPv3.
2. Click the Add button.
3. In the User name box, enter the user name.
4. From the Authentication Protocol list, select the protocol.
For third-party devices, the authentication protocol must be MD5 or SHA-1. HP Web Jetadmin cannot
discover third-party devices that do not use these protocols.
5. In the Authenticated password and Conrm authenticated password boxes, enter the authenticated
password (minimum of 8 characters).
For third-party devices, the authentication password must be in the format of a passphrase with a
minimum length of 8 characters. HP Web Jetadmin cannot discover third-party devices that have an
authentication password that is in the format of a key or that is less than 8 characters.
6. From the Privacy Protocol list, select the protocol.
For third-party devices, the privacy protocol must be DES or AES-128. HP Web Jetadmin cannot discover
third-party devices that do not use these protocols.
7. In the Private password and Conrm private password boxes, enter the private password (minimum of 8
characters).
8. For HP devices, select the HP Device checkbox. HP Web Jetadmin uses Jetdirect for the context name.
-or-
For third-party devices, clear the HP Device checkbox, and then enter a context name in the box next to the
HP Device checkbox. The context name can be left blank.
9. In the Remember credential as box, enter a name for this credential that is easy to remember.
10. Click the OK button.
