User Guidelines
To use SNMPv3, an engine ID must be specified for the device. Any ID can
be specified or the default string, which is generated using the device MAC
address, can be used.
As the engineID should be unique within an administrative domain, the
following guidelines are recommended:
• Since the engineID should be unique within an administrative domain,
use the default keyword to configure the Engine ID or configure it
explicitly. In the latter case verify that it is unique within the
administrative domain.
• Changing or removing the value of snmpEngineID deletes the SNMPv3
users database.
• The SNMP EngineID cannot be all 0x0 or all 0xF or 0x000000001.
Example
The following example enables SNMPv3 on the device and sets the device
local engine ID to the default value.
console(config)# snmp-server engineid local default
The engine-id must be unique within your administrative domain.
