The snmp-engine-id option specifies a unique identifier for an instance of an SNMP engine. To send
informs, you must specify the engine ID of the inform receiver. To send traps and to allow get and set
operations and so on, specify local as the engine ID.
• hex hex-string - ID is a hexadecimal string.
• ip ip-addr - ID is based on the IP address of the station running the management application.
Enter the IP address of the station. MSS calculates the engine ID based on the address.
• local - Uses the value computed from the switch's system IP address.
The access option specifies the access level of the user. The options are the same as the access
options for community strings. The default is read-only.
The auth-type option specifies the authentication type used to authenticate communications with the
remote SNMP engine. You can specify one of the following:
none - No authentication is used. This is the default.
md5 - Message-digest algorithm 5 is used.
sha - Secure Hashing Algorithm (SHA) is used.
If the authentication type is md5 or sha, you can specify a passphrase or a hexadecimal key.
• To specify a passphrase, use the auth-pass-phrase string option. The string can be from 8
to 32 alphanumeric characters long, with no spaces.
• To specify a key, use the auth-key hex-string option. Type a 16-byte hexadecimal string for
MD5 or a 20-byte hexadecimal string for SHA.
The encrypt-type option specifies the encryption type used for SNMP traffic. You can specify one of
the following:
none - No encryption is used. This is the default.
des - Data Encryption Standard (DES) encryption is used.
3des - Triple DES encryption is used.
aes - Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption is used.
If the encryption type is des, 3des, or aes, you can specify a passphrase or a hexadecimal key.
• To specify a passphrase, use the encrypt-pass-phrase string option. The string can
be from 8 to 32 alphanumeric characters long, with no spaces. Type a string at least 8
characters long for DES or 3DES, or at least 12 characters long for AES.
• To specify a key, use the encrypt-key hex-string option. Type a 16-byte hexadecimal
string.
