c. In the Security Model field, type:
none — Traps are sent in plain text without a digital signature.
authentication — An authentication password must be given. SNMP v3 uses this
pass phrase to digitally "sign" v3 traps using MD5 protocol (associate them with the
user).
privacy — Both an authentication password and a privacy password must be given in
order to provide user-specific authentication and encryption. Traps are signed as
above and also encrypted using Data Encryption Standard (DES) protocol.
d. If you selected authentication as your security model, then in the Authentication
Password field, type a text string at least 8 characters long to provide user-specific
authentication by means of a digital signature. The pass phrase can contain any
characters except: ` \ & , ' " (for example: hon3yb38r).
If you selected privacy as your security model, then complete the Authentication
Password field as described in the previous paragraph. Also, in the Privacy Password
field, type a text string at least 8 characters long to provide user-specific authentication
and trap encryption. The pass phrase can contain any characters except: ` \ & , ' " (for
example: k33p58f3).
