Engine ID
An octet string identifying the engine ID that this entry should belong to.
The string must contain an even number of 10 - 64 hexadecimal digits, but
all-zeros and all-'F's are not allowed. The SNMPv3 architecture uses
User-based Security Model (USM) for message security and View-based
Access Control Model (VACM) for access control. For the USM entry, the
usmUserEngineID
and
usmUserName
are the entry 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 is the same as 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 only ASCII characters 33 - 126 are
allowed.
Security Level
Indicates the security model that this entry should belong to. Possible
security models include:
NoAuth, NoPriv
: no authentication and none privacy.
Auth, NoPriv
: Authentication and no privacy.
Auth, Priv
: Authentication and privacy.
The value of security level cannot be modified if the entry already exists,
which means the value must be set correctly at the time of entry creation.
