{auth {md5|sha} <password-string>}]

no snmp-server user <user-string> <group-string>

Function: Add a user to an existing group. the ‘no’ form of this command deletes this user

Parameters: <user-string> is the name of the user, which can be of 1 to 32 characters

long. <group-string> is the group name for the user to be added to. If encrypted is

configured, user passwords will be encrypted with DES encryption. If auth is configured,

checksums of snmp packets will be verified. For md5 option, HMAC MD5 algorithm will be

used, while for sha, HMAC SHA will be used. <password-string> is the password for the

user, which is limited to 8 to 32 characters long.

Usage Guide: If encryption and authentication are not configured, the encryption and

authentication are both disabled by default. If encryption is enabled, authentication must

be enabled too. When deleting a user, if the input user name can be matched, the group

name will be ignored. User can be deleted even if the input group name of the user does

not match with the configurations.

Example: Add a user named tester to the group named Group. Encryption should be

enabled and HMAC md5 should be used for authentication.

Switch (Config)#snmp-server user tester DCNGroup encrypted auth md5 hellohello

Delete a user：

Switch (Config)#no snmp-server user tester Group

recommended that this view is used. If the read view or the write view is not configured,

the corresponding operation will be disabled.

view named readview and the write operation disabled.

Switch (Config)#snmp-server group Group AuthPriv read readview
