Various SNMP versions#

Multiple SNMP USM users#

Listen and respond to SNMP GET/SET/GETNEXT/GETBULK queries with the following options:

SNMPv3
with USM user ‘usr-md5-des’, auth: MD5, priv DES or with USM user ‘usr-sha-none’, auth: SHA, no privacy with USM user ‘usr-sha-aes128’, auth: SHA, priv AES
allow access to SNMPv2-MIB objects (1.3.6.1.2.1)
over IPv4/UDP, listening at 127.0.0.1:161

Either of the following Net-SNMP commands will walk this Agent:

$ snmpwalk -v3 -u usr-md5-des -l authPriv -A authkey1 -X privkey1 localhost .1.3.6
$ snmpwalk -v3 -u usr-sha-none -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A authkey1 localhost .1.3.6
$ snmpwalk -v3 -u usr-sha-aes128 -l authPriv -a SHA -A authkey1 -x AES -X privkey1 localhost .1.3.6
