• User Name Enter the name you want to give to the new account. (You can only enter data in
this field when you are creating a new account.) User names are up to eight
characters in length and are not case sensitive. Valid characters include all the
alphanumeric characters as well as the dash ('-') and underscore ('_') characters.
• Password Enter the optional new or changed password for the account. It will not display as
it is typed, only asterisks(*) will show. Passwords are up to eight alpha numeric
characters in length, and are case sensitive.
• Confirm Password Enter the password again, to confirm that you entered it correctly. This field will
not display, but will show asterisks (*)
• Authentication
Protocol
Specify the SNMPv3 Authentication Protocol setting for the selected user
account. The valid Authentication Protocols are None, MD5 or SHA. If you select
None, the user will be unable to access the SNMP data from an SNMP browser.
If you select MD5 or SHA, the user login password will be used as the SNMPv3
authentication password, and you must therefore specify a password, and it must
be eight characters long.
• Encryption Protocol Specify the SNMPv3 Encryption Protocol setting for the selected user account.
The valid Encryption Protocols are None or DES. If you select the DES Protocol
you must enter a key in the Encryption Key field. If None is specified for the
Protocol, the Encryption Key is ignored.
• Encryption Key If you selected DES in the Encryption Protocol field enter the SNMPv3
Encryption Key here. Otherwise this field is ignored. Valid keys are 0 to 15
characters long. The Apply checkbox must be checked in order to change the
Encryption Protocol and Encryption Key.
