Hello list
I am currently looking for at a snmp based monitoring system and was asked to consider nav as a candidate. I have downloaded and startet the virtual app, but before I am putting to much effort in configuring and testing I wonder if SNMP v3 is supported?
This is a requirement for our install but I cant find any mention on the webpages.
The short answer: No, sorry.
The long answer: The underlying SNMP library is NET-SNMP, which does support this, but among our customers SNMPv3 hasn't been a priority so far. SNMPv3 support would mostly require some changes to how NAV stores SNMP credentials for devices, and how these are entered in through the web interface.
We did put forth (during a meeting today) SNMPv3 and NETCONF as tasks for our customer reference committee to vote for. Within a few weeks we should know how they want us to prioritize implementation of these in NAV.
