[AAA-27] Security Credential Service

Thu, 21 Mar 2019 11:56:40 +0000

The SNMP Plugin project team will be developing a plugin that allows applications to interact with devices using the SNMP protocol. Interacting with a device using SNMP requires a Security Credential. This may be a simple community name for SNMPv1. SNMPv3 will require more sophisticated Security Credentials such as certificates.

A service is needed that allow an operator to populate a data store with security credentials needed to interact with devices. The service must also allow applications (eg SNMP Plugin) to obtain security credentials from the data store so that it can interact with the device. The Security Credential service should be able to provide security credentials for other protocols such as NETCONF.

This Enhancement Request is requesting the AAA team to provide this service. The AAA team should work closely with the SNMP Plugin team to implement this service.
