Although the Guide tells only support SNMP V2c, but the ArubaOS on the controller support SNMPV3 inform (which is trap with ACK).
Configuring SNMP V3 between Aruba Controller and AirWave What you need to check before configuring SNMP V3:
- Both the Controller (Master or Master/Local) and the AirWave have the correct Date/time and they are sync with each other.
- Make sure that this command controller-ip vlan ? is configured on the controller, and the VLAN is belong to the same IP address that you will add to AirWave.
#show switch ip ; use this command to check the IP address that you need to add to AirWave
On the controller:
Step 4 is to add a new SNMP V3 user (needs to be configured before you add an IP address of the AirWave in step 5), you need the following entries:
Username, Select SH1 with a password, and Select AES with same password used for SH1
Apply, and then save the configuration.
Note: if Enable Trap Receiver is not selected then there will be no IDS Events displayed on AirWave RAPID tab, as well as, no Syslog & Traps information displayed on AirWave System tab.
CLI Command after add the configuration from GUI:
snmp-server user "username" auth-prot sha ****** priv-prot aes ******
snmp-server enable trap
snmp-server host x.x.x.x. version 3 username inform engine-id XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX udp-port 162
On Airwave:
Only need to add the SNMPV3 user
