SNMP is disabled.
SNMPv1/v2c/v3 is supported.
Note
Note that SNMP in versions 1 and 2c does not have any security mechanisms.
Only SNMPv3 is supported.
If the function is enabled, an SNMP engine ID is generated that can be migrated. You can
transfer configured SNMPv3 users to a different device.
If you enable this function and load the configuration of the device on another device,
configured SNMPv3 users are retained.
If the function is disabled, a device-specific SNMP engine ID is generated. To generate
the ID, the agent MAC address of the device is used. You cannot transfer this SNMP user
configuration to other devices.
If you load the configuration of the device on another device, all configured SNMPv3
users are deleted.
