auth is an authentication level setting session that can be either the
HMAC-MD5-96 (md5) or the HMAC-SHA-96 (sha) authentication level
and requires a password string auth-password (not to exceed 64 characters).
If you enter v3 you can also configure a private (priv) encryption algorithm and
password string priv-password using the following keywords (not to exceed 64
characters):
•
priv specifies the User-based Security Model (USM).
•
des specifies the use of the 56-bit DES algorithm.
•
3des specifies the use of the 168-bit DES algorithm.
