se_enc Utility--Encrypt the SNMPV3 Configuration File

You can use se_enc command line utility to encrypt the SNMPv3 configuration file.

This utility has the following format:

se_enc
    [-i &lt | -in_file &gt]
    [-o &lt | -out_file &gt]
    [-m FIPS_mode]
    [-d logLevel]
    [-s]
    [-L]

-in_file &gt

Represents the name of the file to be encrypted.

-out_file &gt

Represents the name of the encrypted file.

-m FIPS_mode

Controls the FIPS mode of operation. Accepted values are 0, 1, and 2.

0

Indicates Non-FIPS mode.

1

Indicates FIPS co-existence mode.

2

Indicates FIPS only mode.

Default: 1

-d logLevel

Specifies the log level of the SNMP messages. Accepted values are 0 to 5.

Note: Do not use this flag to encrypt sysedgeV3.cf. This flag is used to encrypt passwords for SNMP SET.

The following example encrypts the default SNMPv3 configuration file sysedgeV3.cf:

{0} -i C:\sysedge\config\sysedgeV3.cf -o C:\temp\sysedgeV3.cf
