SNMP V3 is a superset of SNMP V2, in that the same MIB constructs are used.  What is different is in the area of security, in that you can specify different, and encrypted, community strings, for different parts of the MIB tree.  NetView 7.1 does not support this security mechanism.  It does support the MIBS in the same ways that it always has.  Upgrading your Cisco routers to a new IOS will not change how NetView deals with them as long as you do not attempt to implement any new security for SNMP.

Sorry for the dreaded re-occuring SNMPv3 question...

Does anyone know if NetView 7.1 supports SNMPv3?  The
customer site I am at plans on upgrading to this
latest version on their cisco devices.  I have read
over the 7.1 documentation and can find no references
to SNMPv3.  

Thank you,
Eric
