The following command sets the SNMP users settings:
set snmp-user <engine-id> <user> <auth> <priv>
<engine-id> : | local | string
<auth> : none | {md5 <passphrase>} | {sha
<passphrase>}
<priv> : none | {des <passphrase>} | {aes
<passphrase>}
auth-passphrase and privacy-passphrase are ASCII strings. Together with internally
calculated Engine ID these strings are used to produce authentication and privacy keys
respectively.
If no parameters other than the user name are supplied to the set command, an entry is
created for the user identified by the name while privacy and authentication algorithms
are set to NULL.
If a privacy algorithm (des or aes) is not supplied, the privacy algorithm is set to NULL.
If a privacy-passphrase is not supplied, the privacy-passphrase is the same as the
authentication passphrase.
SNMP Managers
Each SNMPv3 agent has an engine ID that uniquely identifies the agent in the device and
also the unique identification of the MIB objects within a domain.
In SNMPv3 communication, Engine ID is used as an identifier for an agent among other
agents.
When you define get and set commands for SNMPv3 user, set Engine ID to Local. When
you define trap for SNMPv3 user, set Engine ID to the value of the Engine ID of the
remote manager.
Note that get, set, and trap commands should be defined for the same user. The same
user should be defined twice: once with Engine ID=Local and the second time with the
Engine ID of the remote manager.
