6.4.4.1 Setting a Local Engine ID
An SNMPv3 engine is an independent SNMP agent that resides on the
ECN330-switch. This engine protects against message replay, delay, and
redirection. The engine ID is also used in combination with user passwords to
generate the security keys for authenticating and encrypting SNMPv3 packets.
A local engine ID is automatically generated that is unique to the ECN330-
switch. This is referred to as the default engine ID. If the local engineID is deleted
or changed, all SNMP users will be cleared. All existing users will need to be
reconfigured.
A new engine ID can be specified by entering 10 to 64 hexadecimal characters.
Web – Click SNMP, SNMPv3, Engine ID. Enter an ID of up to 64 hexadecimal
characters and then click Save.
