Description

Adds or deletes a user entry for SNMPv3. Authorization and privacy are optional, but to use privacy, you must use authorization. The no form of the command deletes a user entry. When you delete a user, only the user name is required.

Parameters

<AUTH_PASS>

With authorization, you can set either MD5 or SHA authentication. The authentication password auth_pass must be 6 to 32 characters and is mandatory when you configure authentication.

priv des|aes

With privacy, the switch supports DES (56-bit) and AES (128-bit) encryption. Defaults to DES. Only AES 128-bit and DES 56-bit encryption are supported as privacy protocols. Other non-standard encryption algorithms, such as AES-172, AES-256, and 3-DES are not supported.

<PRIV_PASS>

The privacy password priv_pass must be 6 to 32 characters and is mandatory when you configure privacy.

remote-engine-id <engineid>

Sets the SNMPv3 remote engine ID in colon-separated hexadecimal notation.
