About SNMP Security
SNMPv3 provides for both security models and security levels. A security model is an authentication
strategy that is set up for a user and the role in which the user resides. A security level is the permitted
level of security within a security model. A combination of a security model and a security level
determines which security mechanism is employed when handling an SNMP packet.
