Parameters
that will identify the new SNMP user.
<groupname 32> − An alphanumeric name of up to 32 characters
that will identify the SNMP group the new SNMP user will be

encrypted – Allows the user to choose a type of authorization for
authentication using SNMP. The user may choose:
auth - The user may also choose the type of authentication
algorithms used to authenticate the snmp user. The choices are:
priv – Adding the priv (privacy) parameter will allow for encryption in
addition to the authentication algorithm for higher security. The user
may choose:
•
by_password – Requires the SNMP user to enter a
password for authentication and privacy. The password is
defined by specifying the auth_password below. This
method is recommended.
•
by_key – Requires the SNMP user to enter a encryption
key for authentication and privacy. The key is defined by
specifying the key in hex form below. This method is not
recommended.
• md5 − Specifies that the HMAC-MD5-96 authentication
level will be used. md5 may be utilized by entering one of
the following:
<auth password 8-16> - An alphanumeric sting of
between 8 and 16 characters that will be used to
authorize the agent to receive packets for the host.
<auth_key 32-32> - Enter an alphanumeric sting of
exactly 32 characters, in hex form, to define the key that
will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for
the host.
−
•
sha Specifies that the HMAC-SHA-96 authentication
level will be used.
<auth password 8-20> - An alphanumeric sting of
between 8 and 20 characters that will be used to
authorize the agent to receive packets for the host.
<auth_key 40-40> - Enter an alphanumeric sting of
exactly 40 characters, in hex form, to define the key that
will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for
the host.
•
des – Adding this parameter will allow for a 56-bit
encryption to be added using the DES-56 standard using:
<priv_password 8-16> - An alphanumeric string of
between 8 and 16 characters that will be used to
encrypt the contents of messages the host sends to
