Description: The authentication key used for SNMPv3. Use 16 bytes for MD5 keys and 20 bytes for SHA keys. Typically, when this object is read, a zero length value is returned, and setting the key to a zero length string has no affect on the key value. The contents of the key can be viewed if the top level agent option 'displaySecretKeys'is set.

What is communityAuthKey?

The raw SNMPv3 authentication key for this community, 16 bytes for MD5 or 20 for SHA; reading it back normally returns a zero-length value unless the agent's displaySecretKeys option is enabled, and writing an empty string leaves the existing key unchanged.
