Usage guidelines The snmp-agent command is optional for an SNMP configuration task. The SNMP agent is automatically enabled when you execute any command that begins with snmp-agent except for the snmp-agent calculate-password command. Examples # Enable the SNMP agent. system-view [Sysname] snmp-agent snmp-agent calculate-password Use snmp-agent calculate-password to convert a plaintext key to a ciphertext key for authentication or encryption in SNMPv3. Syntax In non-FIPS mode: snmp-agent calculate-password plain-password mode { md5 | sha } { local-engineid | specified-engineid engineid } In FIPS mode: snmp-agent calculate-password plain-password mode sha { local-engineid | specified-engineid engineid } Views System view Predefined user roles network-admin Parameters plain-password: Specifies a plaintext authentication or privacy key. mode: Specifies the same authentication mode as configured in the snmp-agent usm-user v3 command. MD5 is faster than SHA-1, while SHA-1 provides higher security than MD5. • md5: Converts the plaintext authentication key to a ciphertext key for MD5 authentication, or converts the plaintext privacy key to a ciphertext key for AES or DES encryption used in conjunction with MD5. • sha: Converts the plaintext authentication key to a ciphertext key for SHA-1 authentication, or converts the plaintext privacy key to a ciphertext key for AES or DES encryption used in conjunction with SHA-1 authentication. local-engineid: Uses the local engine ID to calculate the ciphertext key. You can configure the local engine ID by using the snmp-agent local-engineid command. specified-engineid engineid: Uses a user-defined engine ID to calculate the ciphertext key. The engineid argument specifies an SNMP engine ID as a hexadecimal string. It must comprise an even number of hexadecimal characters, in the range of 10 to 64. All-zero and all-F strings are invalid. Usage guidelines Make sure the SNMP agent is enabled before you execute the snmp-agent calculate-password command. 91
