Hi all,
I am attemping to set up some new 5420M switches with VOSS 9.0.0.2 on them. We are using SNMPv3 settings on them and I am attempting to remove the default settings including the SNMPv1/2 settings and the default SNMPv3 intitial user and group.
Below is the configuration I am using (Sanitized) for SNMPv3 on the switch.
snmp-server location "location Name"
snmp-server view myview 1
snmp-server group mygroup "" auth-priv read-view myview write-view myview notify-view myview
snmp-server user myuser group mygroup sha aes
#Prompted for user password here, followed by privacy password
snmp-server host 1.2.3.4 v3 authPriv myuser inform
After that I attempt to remove the default settings using the following:
no snmp-server community private
no snmp-server community public
no snmp-server user initial
no snmp-server group initial
no snmp-server group readgrp
no snmp-server group v1v2grp
After deleting the group initial I am given the warning:
SNMP WARNING Default initial group is persistent after reboot unless other snmpv3 group is defined.
This results in the group being deleted, but coming back after a reboot even with a write mem.
However according to this extreme documentation that should only happen if the switch is using SNMPv1/2 and there is no SNMPv3 group defined. In my case I have a SNMPv3 group defined and I am actively using it. I have created the SNMPv3 configuration in line with this extreme documentation as well.
Any suggestions on how to permenently remove the intitial group from VOSS 9.x?
Thank you,
Mike

Hi,
I saw the same behaviour in my lab on releases 9.0.0.0 and 9.0.2.0 on 5420M-24W-4YE-FabricEngine devices:
But in XA1440 run 8.10.2 too.
Maybe the custom group needs some type of view in order to replace de initial group or is a bug.
In the other hand I thinl you are safe as no user are asociated to this group, but if you find the solution, please share with us, Ill apreciate!!!
Cheers!!
