This method is recommended. • by_key - Requires the SNMP user to enter a encryption key for authentication and privacy. The key is defined by specifying the key in hex form below. This method is not recommended. auth - The user may also choose the type of authentication algorithms used to authenticate the snmp user. The choices are: • md5 − Specifies that the HMAC-MD5-96 authentication level will be used. md5 may be utilized by entering one of the following: - An alphanumeric sting of between 8 and 16 characters that will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for the host. - Enter an alphanumeric sting of exactly 32 characters, in hex form, to define the key that will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for the host. • sha − Specifies that the HMAC-SHA-96 authentication level will be used. - An alphanumeric sting of between 8 and 20 characters that will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for the host. - Enter an alphanumeric sting of exactly 40 characters, in hex form, to define the key that will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for the host. priv - Adding the priv (privacy) parameter will allow for encryption in addition to the authentication algorithm for higher security.

being viewed by an unauthorized source.
Parameters
<username 32>
An alphanumeric name of up to 32 characters
that will identify the new SNMP user.
<groupname 32>
An alphanumeric name of up to 32 characters
that will identify the SNMP group the new SNMP user will be
associated with.
encrypted
– Allows the user to choose a type of authorization for
authentication using SNMP. The user may choose:
±
±
±
±
±
by_password
– Requires the SNMP user to enter a
password for authentication and privacy. The password is
defined by specifying the auth_password below. This
method is recommended.
by_key
– Requires the SNMP user to enter a encryption
key for authentication and privacy. The key is defined by
specifying the key in hex form below. This method is not
recommended.
auth
- The user may also choose the type of authentication
algorithms used to authenticate the snmp user. The choices are:
md5
Specifies that the HMAC-MD5-96 authentication
level will be used. md5 may be utilized by entering one of
the following:
<auth password 8-16>
- An alphanumeric sting of
between 8 and 16 characters that will be used to
authorize the agent to receive packets for the host.
<auth_key 32-32>
- Enter an alphanumeric sting of
exactly 32 characters, in hex form, to define the key that
will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for
the host.
sha
Specifies that the HMAC-SHA-96 authentication
level will be used.
<auth password 8-20>
- An alphanumeric sting of
between 8 and 20 characters that will be used to
authorize the agent to receive packets for the host.
<auth_key 40-40>
- Enter an alphanumeric sting of
exactly 40 characters, in hex form, to define the key that
will be used to authorize the agent to receive packets for
the host.
priv –
Adding the
priv
(privacy) parameter will allow for encryption in
addition to the authentication algorithm for higher security. The user
may choose:
des –
Adding this parameter will allow for a 56-bit
encryption to be added using the DES-56 standard using:
<priv_password 8-16>
- An alphanumeric string of
between 8 and 16 characters that will be used to
encrypt the contents of messages the host sends to
