Command Usage
• An SNMP engine is an independent SNMP agent that resides either on
this switch or on a remote device. This engine protects against message
replay, delay, and redirection. The engine ID is also used in
combination with user passwords to generate the security keys for
authenticating and encrypting SNMPv3 packets.
