Command Usage
◆
Local users (i.e., the command does not specify a remote engine identifier)
must be configured to authorize management access for SNMPv3 clients, or to
identify the source of SNMPv3 trap messages sent from the local switch.
◆
Remote users (i.e., the command specifies a remote engine identifier) must be
configured to identify the source of SNMPv3 inform messages sent from the
local switch.
◆
The SNMP engine ID is used to compute the authentication/privacy digests
from the password. You should therefore configure the engine ID with the
snmp-server engine-id command before using this configuration command.
