GS108TV3 snmpget unknown user admin

I have setup the switch to use the web browser interface (GUI) from thelocal LAN connection only.


When I log in using firefox and username jgraham@traclabs.com and my password, the GUI says 'Welcome admin' in the upper right corner. This is fine.

 

From my ubuntu linux laptop, I can use the following command with good results:

`snmpget 10.0.0.123 -v3 -u admin -lnoAuthNoPriv -On IF-MIB::ifInOctets.1`

I get back the mib/oid info.

 

I am trying to set up an IDENTICAL netgear switch, but when I run the above command I get the error 'no such user' I assume for 'admin'.

 

How do I get 'admin' to be recognized from snmpget?

I looked through the entire GUI and the pdf manual and did some web searching but have not been able to figure it out.
