Description: SNMPv3 User Authentication. The user passsword must be set to a string greater than or equal to 8 characters for this to be set to anything but none(1).

none(1) - no authentication used hmacmd5(1) - Use HMAC-MD5 authentication hmacsha(1) - Use HMAC-SHA authentication

What is agentUserAuthenticationType?

This selects the SNMPv3 authentication protocol bound to a user: none(1), hmacmd5(2), or hmacsha(3); a password of at least 8 characters must already be set before choosing anything but none. An admin sets hmacsha(3) to require SHA-authenticated SNMPv3 requests from that account instead of allowing unauthenticated polling.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.1.3.2.1.6
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB::agentUserAuthenticationType

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.1.3.2.1.6.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> NETGEAR-SWITCHING-MIB::agentUserAuthenticationType.1

Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):

snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.4526.11.1.2.1.3.2.1.6.1 i <value>
