SNMPv3 provides additional security features not available in SNMPv2c. In addition
to the functions of SNMPv2c, SNMPv3 allows user and trapuser levels that are
based on authentication and privacy settings. The authentication algorithm is either
HMAC-SHA-1-96 or MD5, with a key of up to 32 characters in length. The privacy
settings are based on the AES encryption standard, with a key of up to 32
characters in length. All keys are uppercase.
