Switch Management Commands 2129
2
For stackable systems, configure your own EngineID, and verify that is
unique within your administrative domain.
Changing the value of the snmpEngineID has important side-effects. A user's
password (entered on the command line) is converted to an MD5 or SHA
security digest. This digest is based on both the password and the local engine
ID. The command line password is then deleted and is not stored on the
switch, as required by RFC 2274. Because of this deletion, if the local value of
engineID changes, the security digests of SNMPv3 users will be invalid and
the users will have to be reconfigured.
Example
The following example configures the Engine ID automatically.
console(config)# snmp-server engineID local default
snmp-server filter

entry. To remove the specified SNMP server filter entry, use the no form of
this command.
