Instrumentation Functions for SNMP-USER-BASED-SM-MIB

The module `snmp_user_based_sm_mib` implements the instrumentation functions for the SNMP-USER-BASED-SM-MIB, and functions for configuring the database.

Note that authentication has been extended according to RFC 7860 (SNMP-USM-HMAC-SHA2-MIB).

The configuration files are described in the SNMP User's Manual.

# Summary

## Types

auth_key()

The size/length of the list depends on auth protocol

auth_protocol()

> #### Note

> "An indication of whether messages sent on behalf of this user to/from the SNMP engine identified by usmUserEngineID, can be authenticated, and if so, the type of authentication protocol which is used."

clone_from()

> #### Note

> "A pointer to another conceptual row in this usmUserTable. The user in this other conceptual row is called the clone-from user."

key_change()

> #### Note

> "Every definition of an object with this syntax must identify a protocol P, a secret key K, and a hash algorithm H that produces output of L octets."

name()

> #### Note

> "A human readable string representing the name of the user. This is the (User-based Security) Model dependent security ID."

priv_key()

The size/length of the list depends on priv protocol

priv_protocol()

> #### Note

> "An indication of whether messages sent on behalf of this user to/from the SNMP engine identified by usmUserEngineID, can be protected from disclosure, and if so, the type of privacy protocol which is used."

public()

`OCTET STRING (SIZE(0..32))`

usm_entry()

## Functions

add_user(EngineID, Name, SecName, Clone, AuthP, AuthKeyC, OwnAuthKeyC, PrivP, PrivKeyC, OwnPrivKeyC, Public, AuthKey, PrivKey)

Adds a USM security data (user) to the agent config. Equivalent to one line in the `usm.conf` file.

configure(ConfDir)

This function is called from the supervisor at system start-up.

delete_user(Key)

Delete a USM security data (user) from the agent config.

reconfigure(ConfDir)

Inserts all data in the configuration files into the database and destroys all old data, including the rows with StorageType `nonVolatile`. The rows created from the configuration file will have StorageType `nonVolatile`.

Adds a USM security data (user) to the agent config. Equivalent to one line in the `usm.conf` file.

Link to this function

# configure(ConfDir)

View Source

    -spec configure(ConfDir) -> snmp:void() when ConfDir :: string().

This function is called from the supervisor at system start-up.

Inserts all data in the configuration files into the database and destroys all old rows with StorageType `volatile`. The rows created from the configuration file will have StorageType `nonVolatile`.

All `snmp` counters are set to zero.

If an error is found in the configuration file, it is reported using the function `config_err/2` of the error report module, and the function fails with the reason `configuration_error`.

`ConfDir` is a string which points to the directory where the configuration files are found.

The configuration file read is: `usm.conf`.

# delete_user(Key)

    -spec delete_user(Key) -> ok | {error, Reason} when Key :: term(), Reason :: term().

Delete a USM security data (user) from the agent config.

# reconfigure(ConfDir)

View Source

    -spec reconfigure(ConfDir) -> snmp:void() when ConfDir :: string().

Inserts all data in the configuration files into the database and destroys all old data, including the rows with StorageType `nonVolatile`. The rows created from the configuration file will have StorageType `nonVolatile`.

Thus, the data in the SNMP-USER-BASED-SM-MIB, after this function has been called, is the data from the configuration files.

All `snmp` counters are set to zero.

If an error is found in the configuration file, it is reported using the function `config_err/2` of the error report module, and the function fails with the reason `configuration_error`.

`ConfDir` is a string which points to the directory where the configuration files are found.

The configuration file read is: `usm.conf`.
