SNMP Version

Select the SNMP version for the ZyXEL Device. The SNMP version on the 

ZyXEL Device must match the version on the SNMP manager. Choose SNMP 

version 1 (SNMPv1), SNMP version 2 (SNMPv2) or SNMP version 3 (SNMPv3; 

NWA-3165 only). 

Trap Community

Type the trap community, which is the password sent with each trap to the 

SNMP manager. The default is “public” and allows all requests.
This field is available only when SNMPv1 or SNMPv2 is selected in the SNMP 

Version field.

User Profile
(NWA-3165 Only)

This field is available only when you select SNMPv3 in the SNMP Version field.
When sending SNMP v3 traps (messages sent independently by the SNMP 

agent) the agent must authenticate the SNMP manager. If the SNMP manager 

does not provide the correct security details, the agent does not send the traps.
The ZyXEL Device has two SNMP version 3 login accounts, User and Admin. 

Each account has different security settings. You can use either account’s 

security settings for authenticating SNMP traps.
Select User to have the ZyXEL Device use the User account’s security settings, 

or select Admin to have the ZyXEL Device use the Admin account’s security 

settings.  
Use the Configure SNNMPv3 User Profile link to set up each account’s 

security settings.
