Global Configuration mode command
specifies the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) engineID on
the local device. Use the

Parameters
•
engineid-string
—Specifies a concatenated hexadecimal character string
identifying the engine ID. Each byte in a hexadecimal character string is
two hexadecimal digits. Bytes are separated by a period or colon. If an odd
number of hexadecimal digits are entered, the system automatically
prefixes the digit 0 to the string. (Length: 5–32 characters, 9–64
hexadecimal digits)
•
default
—Specifies that the engine ID is created automatically based on
the device MAC address.
Default Configuration
The engine ID is not configured.
If SNMPv3 is enabled using this command, and the default is specified, the
default engine ID is defined per standard as:
• First 4 octets: First bit = 1, the rest is IANA Enterprise number = 674.
• Fifth octet: Set to 3 to indicate the MAC address that follows.
• Last 6 octets: The device MAC address.
Command Mode
Global Configuration mode
User Guidelines
To use SNMPv3, specify an engine ID for the device. Any ID can be specified
or use a default string, which is generated using the device MAC address.
