What is usecStatsUnauthorizedOperations?

This is a cumulative count of packets dropped because the requested SNMP operation was invalid or not authorized for that user. An admin monitors this to catch accounts attempting operations, such as SET, that go beyond their granted permissions. For example, a read-only user attempting an SNMP SET request would increment this counter.
