Abstract :
SNMPv3 (D. Partain et al., 1999; R. Presuhn et al., 1999), supports authentication, confidentiality and access control. Access control is based on MIB views, which makes it possible to have fine grained control over who accesses what in a MIB. Different users can be given different access rights. However, as the number of users increase, it becomes very difficult to keep control over all the different access rights. The paper describes a new graphical language called MIB View Modeling Language that provides a tool for easy specification of MTB views. It is a hierarchical language that provides mechanisms for supporting a large number of different users and MIB views
