Usage Guidelines

The no form of the command removes the configured SNMP view.

SNMP views are named groups of MIB objects that can be associated with user accounts to allow limited access for viewing and modification of SNMP statistics and system configuration. SNMP views can also be used with other commands that take SNMP views as an argument.

MIB objects and MIB sub-trees can be identified by a name or by the numbers called object identifiers (OIDs) that represent the position of the object or sub-tree in the MIB hierarchy.

Note: All MIB objects are automatically excluded from any view unless they are explicitly included; therefore, when creating views using the snmp-server view command, indicate which portion of the MIB you want users to access.
Examples

The following example assigns the view called "admin" a community string or user group. The "admin" view allows access to the MIB objects that begin with the 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991 object identifier. 

device(config)# snmp-server view admin 1.3.6.1.4.1.1991 included
