Setting the Encryption Key
Use the wfsnmpkey command to specify the key that the encryption algorithm
uses when it encrypts the security counters. The encryption algorithm uses the
attributes of the key (size, range, and value) as integral parts of its encryption
process.
Also, when Site Manager issues the first
set request within an application, it
prompts the user to enter this key as a password that enables Site Manager to
operate in secure mode.
Enter the command in the following format:
wfsnmpkey
<key>
<key> is the string of ACSII characters that make up the encryption key for this
router. The key can be no longer than six characters.
Resetting the Security Counter
The wfsnmpseed command allows you to reset the counter used by the security
mechanism. Under normal operating conditions, it is not necessary to reset the
counter; this command is mainly for debugging purposes.
To reset the seed counter, enter the
wfsnmpseed command in the following
format:
wfsnmpseed
<comm_name> <mgr_address>
[-|
<value>
] [-|
<value>
] [-|
<value>
]
[
-|
<value>
] [-|
<value>
]
<comm_name> is the name of the SNMP community for which you want to reset
the counter.
<mgr_address>
is the address of the manager for which you want to reset the
counter.
[
-|<value>] is either a dash (-) to indicate no change to a specific counter value, or
the value to which you want to reset the counter.
Note: If you replace a board in a BCN, BLN, or BLN-2 router, you should
re-enter the
wfsnmpkey command to ensure that the key is updated for all
slots.
