a Select the minimum level of security to allow for any SNMP
communication with the switch from the Security Level drop-down
list:
Unsecured—SNMP message exchanges are not secure. This is the
default, and is the only value supported for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
(This security level is the same as the noAuthNoPriv level described
in SNMPv3 RFCs.)
Authenticated—SNMP message exchanges are authenticated but
are not encrypted. (This security level is the same as the authNoPriv
level described in SNMPv3 RFCs.)
Encrypted—SNMP message exchanges are authenticated and
encrypted. (This security level is the same as the authPriv level
described in SNMPv3 RFCs.)
AuthRequest-UnsecuredNotify—SNMP message exchanges are
authenticated but are not encrypted, and notifications are neither
authenticated nor encrypted.
The only security level supported for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c is
Unsecured. To use a higher security level, you must use USM
(SNMPv3).

V1
V2c
USM (SNMPv3)
c Click Next.
d In the Security Model drop-down list, select the security model to use
specifically for SNMP communications between the switch and
3WXM:
USM (SNMPv3)
V1
e If you selected USM, then select the minimum level of security for
SNMP communication between the switch and 3WXM Services:
Unsecured—SNMP message exchanges are not secure. This is the
default, and is the only value supported for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
(This security level is the same as the noAuthNoPriv level described
in SNMPv3 RFCs.)
