===SNMPv3 Router Configuration===
-----
SNMP v3 provides more security features than v2, making it more suitable for use in secure network environments.
Zabbix and Teltonika routers both support SNMPv3.
Router configuration is as follow:
Navigate to '''Services > SNMP''':
#Enable SNMP service
#Enable SNMP v2c Mode
#Enable SNMP v3 Mode
#Leave other settings as default

Navigate to '''Services > SNMP > SNMPv3 Users''' and add new instance with authentication information:
#Security Level: Authentication and privacy
#Authentication type: MD5
#Create an authentication passphrase
#Privacy type: DES
#Create Privacy passphrase
#Leave other settings as default, Save & Apply settings

===Adding SNMPv2 host to Zabbix front-end===
-----
Once we have SNMPv3 setup on the router, we will add it as host in the zabbix server. In order to do so login to the front-end of the Zabbix server and navigate to '''Monitoring → Hosts''' on the left hand menu. Click on the '''Create host''' button in the right-hand corner of the screen. A window will pop-up where we will configure the host accordingly:
#Hostname: RUTX11-SNMP3
#Templates: Templates/network devices → Network Generic Device by SNMP
#Host groups: Discovered hosts
#Interfaces: Click '''Add''', select '''SNMP''', input IP address of the router and chose SNMPv3 version.
#Enter required authentication data from the router.
#Leave other settings as default.

The router is now added as a host using SNMP v2 and you should see it in the list of monitored devices:
