COMMAND USAGE
◆ Local users (i.e., the command does not specify a remote engine
identifier) must be configured to authorize management access for
SNMPv3 clients, or to identify the source of SNMPv3 trap messages
sent from the local switch.
◆ Remote users (i.e., the command specifies a remote engine identifier)
must be configured to identify the source of SNMPv3 inform messages
sent from the local switch.
◆ The SNMP engine ID is used to compute the authentication/privacy
digests from the password. You should therefore configure the engine
ID with the snmp-server engine-id command before using this
configuration command.
