enabled. Select a default Engine ID that is comprised of Enterprise number
and the default MAC address, and verify that the Engine ID is unique for the
administrative domain. This prevents two devices in a network from having
the same Engine ID.
• Use Default — When checked, uses the device generated Engine ID. The
default Engine ID is based on the device MAC address and is defined per
standard as:
- First 4 octets — first bit = 1, the rest is IANA Enterprise number. To locate
the IANA Enterprise number refer to the Vendor web site.
- Fifth octet — Set to 3 to indicate the MAC address that follows.
- Last 6 octets — MAC address of the device.
The possible values are:
-
Checked
— Use the default Engine ID.
-
Unchecked
— Use a user-defined Engine ID.
• SNMP Notifications — Indicates if the device can send SNMP notifications.
The possible field values are:
-
Checked

• Authentication Notifications — Indicates if SNMP Authentication failure
notification is enabled on the device. The possible field values are:
-
Checked

notifications.
-
Unchecked
— Disables the device from sending authentication failure
notifications.
