Snmp-Agent Community - 3Com 5500-EI PWR Reference Manual

Description
Use the snmp-agent calculate-password command to encrypt a plain-text password to generate a
cipher-text one by using the specified encryption algorithm.
When creating an SNMPv3 user, if you specify an authentication or privacy password as in cipher text,
you need to use this command to generate a cipher text password by using the specified algorithm, and
copy the generated cipher text password to use.
The generated password is related to engine ID: password generated under an engine ID can only take
effect on this engine ID.
Related commands: snmp-agent usm-user v3.
SNMP agent must be enabled for you to encrypt a plain-text password.
Examples
# Use the local engine ID and the md5 algorithm to encrypt plain-text password aaaa.
<Sysname> system-view
System View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z.
[Sysname] snmp-agent calculate-password aaaa mode md5 local-engineid
The result of the password is: B02A2E48346E2CBFFCE809C99CF1F6C
