Secure Shell Transport Model for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

RFC 5592 Secure Shell Transport Model for SNMP June 2009

This memo describes a Transport Model for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), using the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol. This memo also defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB) for use with network management protocols in TCP/IP-based internets. In particular, it defines objects for monitoring and managing the Secure Shell Transport Model for SNMP. Table of

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) Usage for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Transport Models

This memo describes the use of a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) authentication and authorization service with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) secure Transport Models to authenticate users and authorize creation of secure transport sessions. While the recommendations of this memo are generally applicable to a broad class of SNMP Transport Models, the examples focus...

Performance Analysis of SNMP over SSH

There have been several attempts in the past to secure the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Version 3 of the SNMP protocol introduced a User-based Security Model (USM) which comes with its own user and key-management infrastructure. However, many operators are reluctant to introduce a new user and key management infrastructure just to secure SNMP. This paper describes how the Secure S...
