username snmpv3 encryption
Use this command to specify the encryption protocol used for the specified user. The valid
encryption protocols are des and none.
If you select des, you can specify the required key on the command line. The encryption key
must be 8–64 characters long. If you select the des protocol but do not provide a key, the
user is prompted for the key. When you use the des protocol, the login password is also used
as the SNMPv3 encryption password, so it must be a minimum of eight characters. If you
select none, you do not need to provide a key.
The <username> value is the login user name associated with the specified encryption. You
must enter the <username> in the same case you used when you added the user. To see
the case of the <username>, enter the show users command.
no username snmpv3 encryption
Use this command to set the encryption protocol to none. The <username> is the login user
name for which the specified encryption protocol will be used.
show users
Use this command to display the configured user names and their settings. This command is
available only for users with read/write privileges. The SNMPv3 fields is displayed only if
SNMP is available on the system.
