◆ SNMP passwords are localized using the engine ID of the authoritative
agent. For informs, the authoritative SNMP agent is the remote agent.
You therefore need to configure the remote agent’s SNMP engine ID
before you can send proxy requests or informs to it. (See "Configuring
Remote SNMPv3 Users" on page 442 .)
P ARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
◆ Remote Engine ID – The engine ID can be specified by entering 9 to
64 hexadecimal characters (5 to 32 octets in hexadecimal format). If
an odd number of characters are specified, a trailing zero is added to
the value to fill in the last octet. For example, the value “123456789” is
equivalent to “1234567890”.
◆ Remote IP Host – The IP address of a remote management station
which is using the specified engine ID.
