snmp-server engineID local
Overview
Use this command to configure the SNMPv3 engine ID. The SNMPv3 engine ID is
used to uniquely identify the SNMPv3 agent on a device when communicating
with SNMP management clients. Once an SNMPv3 engine ID is assigned, this
engine ID is permanently associated with the device until you change it.
Use the
no
variant of this command to set the user defined SNMPv3 engine ID to a
system generated pseudo-random value by resetting the SNMPv3 engine. The
no
snmp-server engineID local
command has the same effect as the
snmp-server
engineID local default
command.
Note that the
snmp-server engineID local reset
command is used to force the
system to generate a new engine ID when the current engine ID is also system
generated.
Syntax
snmp-server engineID local {<

>|default}
no snmp-server engineID local

commands:
awplus#
configure terminal
awplus(config)#
snmp-server engineID local
800000cf030000cd123456
To set a user defined SNMPv3 engine ID back to a system generated value, use the
following commands:
awplus#
configure terminal
awplus(config)#
no snmp-server engineID local
