Class SnmpVacm

java.lang.Object
  com.adventnet.snmp.snmp2.SnmpACM
      com.adventnet.snmp.snmp2.vacm.SnmpVacm

public class SnmpVacm
extends SnmpACM

This class is used for VACM implementation and provides the method "isAccessAllowed" which does the access verifications. The access verifications are performed, only if the vacmUsed flag is set true. The method setVacmUsed, is used to set the vacmUsed flag. The constructor takes the SnmpAPI as a parameter. This is required as the SnmpAPI has a reference to the vacm tables i.e., VacmContextTable, VacmGroupTable, VacmGroupAccessTable and VacmViewTreeTable. The api user need not instantiate these four tables, as the SnmpAPI instantiates them. The SnmpAPI provides methods to get a reference to these tables. Before the "isAccessAllowed method" is called in, the vacm tables should have the necessary configuration.

Constructor Detail

SnmpVacm

public SnmpVacm()

The constructor takes the SnmpAPI as parameter and initializes the vacm data structures. The SnmpAPI has the reference to the different vacm tables. These tables should have the vacm data configured, when this constructor is called. The vacm data structures in this class are initialized from the SnmpAPI reference of the different vacm tables.

Method Detail

setAcmUsed

public void setAcmUsed(boolean used)

This method is used to set the vacmUsed flag. Only if this flag is set to true, the access verifications are performed. Otherwise the isAccessAllowed method returns with a value ACCESS_ALLOWED.

Specified by:

setAcmUsed in class SnmpACM

Parameters:

used - The boolean value to set the vacmUsed flag.

setDBOperations

protected void setDBOperations(com.adventnet.utils.DatabaseOperations d)

Overrides:

setDBOperations in class SnmpACM

setV3DatabaseFlag

protected void setV3DatabaseFlag(boolean dbFlag)

Overrides:

setV3DatabaseFlag in class SnmpACM

isAcmUsed

public boolean isAcmUsed()

Gets the status of the vacmUsed flag.

Specified by:

isAcmUsed in class SnmpACM

Returns:

True, if the flag vacmUsed is set. Returns false otherwise

getContextTable

public VacmContextTable getContextTable()

Gets the VacmContextTable.

Returns:

The VacmContextTable corresponding to this SnmpVacm instance.

getGroupTable

public VacmGroupTable getGroupTable()

Gets the VacmGroupTable.

Returns:

The VacmGroupTable corresponding to this SnmpVacm instance.

getGroupAccessTable

public VacmGroupAccessTable getGroupAccessTable()

isAccessAllowed

public int isAccessAllowed(SnmpPDU pdu,
                           SnmpOID oid)

This method processess the isAccessAllowed request. The isAccessAllowed performs the access verifications according to the procedure specified in the VIEW BASED ACCESS CONTROL for SNMP. The SnmpPDU which is the input parameter, has all the data elements required for access verifications. The SnmpOID parameter is the Object Identifier for which the access verifications are to be performed. The isAccessAllowed returns an intger value which is a success or an errorIndication. The success returns a positive value '1' while the error will have a negative value. The constants for the success and error values are defined in this class.

Specified by:

isAccessAllowed in class SnmpACM

Parameters:

pdu - The SnmpPDU which has all the parameters required for processing the isAccessAllowed.(context,securityName,securityModel etc.)

oid - The SnmpOID. It has the Object Identifier for which the access verifications are to be performed.

Returns:

an integer value. Returns 1 if access is allowed. Returns a negative value if access is not allowed. The constants for the negative value are specified in this class.
