5. In the Authentication Protocol field, enter an authentication protocol.
This is an optional parameter.
Select one of the following:
MD5
This value represents the MD5 authentication protocol. With this
selection, users (SNMP entities) are authenticated with the MD5
authentication protocol after a message is received. This
algorithm generates the message digest. The user is
authenticated when the authentication protocol checks the
message digest. With the MD5 selection, you can configure a
Privacy Protocol.
SHA
This value represents the SHA authentication protocol. With this
selection, users are authenticated with the SHA authentication
protocol after a message is received. This algorithm generates the
message digest. The user is authenticated when the
