    Posted on in Networking

    I would hope there is a better way to do this. The other day, I had a need to see all the interfaces on a router and how much input and output traffic they were passing. This just seems like something that should be built in, but I've not seen …

    In the following example, I'm going to set up a Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3) user on a Cisco router with limited view of the system MIB.

    • Create an SNMP view that limits the user to the system MIB.
