SNMP SERVER ENGINE LOCAL

snmp-server engineID local

Overview Use this command to configure the SNMPv3 engine ID. The SNMPv3 engine ID is
used to uniquely identify the SNMPv3 agent on a device when communicating
with SNMP management clients. Once an SNMPv3 engine ID is assigned, this
engine ID is permanently associated with the device until you change it.
Use the no variant of this command to set the user defined SNMPv3 engine ID to a
system generated pseudo-random value by resetting the SNMPv3 engine. The no
snmp-server engineID local command has the same effect as the snmp-server
engineID local default command. Note that the
command is used to force the system to generate a new engine ID when the
current engine ID is also system generated.

Syntax

Mode Global Configuration
Usage All devices must have a unique engine ID which is permanently set unless it is
configured by the user.
In a stacked environment, if the same engine ID was automatically generated for
all members of the stack, conflicts would occur if the stack was dismantled.
Therefore, each member of the stack will generate its own engine ID and the stack
master's ID is used when transmitting SNMPv3 packets. Should a master failover
occur, a different engine ID is transmitted. You can modify this behavior by
manually assigning all stack members the same engine ID using the
engineID local
use the devices individually, you must remember to change or remove this
configuration to prevent conflicts.
Example To set the SNMPv3 engine ID to 800000cf030000cd123456, use the following
commands:
awplus#
awplus(config)#
800000cf030000cd123456
