Engine ID
An octet string identifying the engine ID that this entry should belong to. The string must contain
an even number (in hexadecimal format) with number of digits between 10 and 64, but all-zeros
and all-’F’s are not allowed. The SNMPv3 architecture uses the User-based Security Model (USM)
for message security and the View-based Access Control Model (VACM) for access control. For
the USM entry, the usmUserEngineID and usmUserName are the entry’s keys. In a simple agent,
usmUserEngineID is always that agent’s own snmpEngineID value. The value can also take the value
of the snmpEngineID of a remote SNMP engine with which this user can communicate. In other
words, if user engine ID equal system engine ID then it is local user; otherwise it’s remote user.
User name
A string identifying the user name that this entry should belong to. The allowed string length is 1 to
32, and the allowed content is ASCII characters from 33 to 126.
Security Level
Indicates the security model that this entry should belong to. Possible security models are:
NoAuth, NoPriv: No authentication and no privacy.

The value of security level cannot be modified if entry already exists. That means it must first be
ensured that the value is set correctly.

protocols are:
None: No authentication protocol.
MD5: An optional flag to indicate that this user uses MD5 authentication protocol.
SHA: An optional flag to indicate that this user uses SHA authentication protocol.
The value of security level cannot be modified if entry already exists. That means must first ensure
that the value is set correctly.
Authentication
Password
A string identifying the authentication password phrase. For MD5 authentication protocol, the
allowed string length is 8 to 32. For SHA authentication protocol, the allowed string length is 8 to
40. The allowed content is ASCII characters from 33 to 126.
