Configure SNMPv3 user table on this page. The entry index keys are Engine ID and User
Name.

Check to delete the entry. It will be deleted during the next save.
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.
Auth, NoPriv:
Authentication and no privacy.
Auth, Priv:
Authentication and 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.
