This feature allows the configuration of ini file parameters that are not supported by the
Element Management System (EMS) tool, by using the existing acSysGenericINILine
SNMP parameter. This feature is useful for parameters that are currently not
supported by regular SNMP and where the user does not want to use the external ini
file.
To enter more than one line, the character set “$@$” must be added between lines of
ini file parameter settings.

CLI

This feature allows the configuration of the SNMP Engine ID for SNMP v2/v3 agents,
by using the new ini file parameter, SNMPEngineIDString. This parameter is
configured as a string value of up to 36 characters and needs a device reset to take
effect. The Engine ID is used for authenticating a user attempting to access the SNMP
agent on the device.
The default value is 00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00 12 hex characters. The
provided key must be set with 12 hex values delimited by a colon (“:”).
If the supplied key does not pass validation of the 12 hex values or if it is set with the
default value, the engine ID will be generated according to RFC 3411.
Note: Before setting this parameter, all SNMPv3 users must be deleted, otherwise the
configuration is ignored.
