PRIVPROTOCOL Statement—Specify the SNMP v3 Privacy Protocol

The PRIVPROTOCOL statement specifies the SNMP v3 privacy protocol to use. This statement is ignored if your SNMP version is v1 or v2.

Supported Job Types

If your SNMP version is v3, this statement is required for the following job types:

Syntax

This statement has the following format:

PRIVPROTOCOL DES|AES
DES

Specifies the Data Encryption Standard (DES) privacy protocol. DES uses a 16-character encryption key.

AES

Specifies the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) privacy protocol. AES uses a 32-character encryption key. AES is the algorithm required by U.S. Government organizations to protect sensitive (unclassified) information (FIPS-140-2 compliance).

Example: Specify Privacy Protocol in an SNMP Value Set Job

Suppose that you want to set the value of the OUT456789 variable using SNMP v3. In this example, the job uses the AES privacy protocol and the MD5 authentication protocol. The OUT456789 variable belongs to the context named contxtname within the SNMP entity identified by the hexadecimal value CAB0. The credentials of user user1 are used for authorization.

AGENT SNMPAGENT
SNMPUSER user1
MIB 'c:\SNMP\MIBs\mymib.mib'   
SNMPNODE OUT456789 HOST(host.example.com) VERSION(3)
CONTEXTNAME contxtname
CONTEXTENGINEID X'cab0'
PRIVPROTOCOL AES
AUTHPROTOCOL MD5
PARAMETER TYPE(snmp:int) VALUE(8)
