SNMPv3 Enable

The snmpv3 enable command starts a dialog that performs three functions:
enabling the switch to receive SNMPv3 messages, configuring the initial users,
and, optionally, to restrict non version-3 messages to "read only". Figure 11-1
shows and example of this dialog.
For most SNMPv3 management software to be able to create new users, they
must have an initial user record clone. These records can be downgraded,
given less features, but not upgraded with new features added. For this reason
it is recommended that a second user with SHA and DES are created at the
time you enable SNMPv3
