Parameters
plain-password: Plain text password to be encrypted.
mode: Specifies the encryption algorithm and authentication algorithm. The three encryption algorithms
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), triple data encryption standard (3DES), and Data Encryption
Standard (DES) are in descending order in terms of security. Higher security means more complex
implementation mechanism and lower speed. DES is enough to meet general requirements.
Message-Digest Algorithm 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-1) are the two authentication
algorithms. MD5 is faster than SHA-1, while SHA-1 provides higher security than MD5.
3desmd5: Converts a plain text encryption password to a cipher text encryption password. In this
case, the authentication protocol must be MD5, and the encryption algorithm must be 3DES.
3dessha: Converts a plain text encryption password to a cipher text encryption password. In this
case, the authentication protocol must be SHA-1, and the encryption algorithm must be 3DES.
md5: Converts a plain text authentication password to a cipher text authentication password. In
this case, the authentication protocol must be MD5. Or, this algorithm can convert the plain text
encryption password to a cipher text encryption password, In this case, the authentication protocol
must be MD5, and the encryption algorithm can be either AES or DES (when the authentication
protocol is specified as MD5, cipher text passwords are the same by using the encryption
algorithms AES and DES).
sha: Converts the plain text authentication password to a cipher text authentication password. In
this case, the authentication protocol must be SHA-1. Or, this algorithm can convert the plain text
encryption password to a cipher text encryption password, In this case, the authentication protocol
must be SHA-1, and the encryption algorithm can be either AES or DES (when the authentication
protocol is specified as SHA-1, cipher text passwords are the same by using the encryption
algorithms AES and DES).
local-engineid: Uses local engine ID to calculate cipher text password. For engine ID-related
configuration, refer to the snmp-agent local-engineid command.
