Funny you should mention that...I am trying to write it up from the perspective of people that are familiar with snmp version 1 and I wanted to take an opportunity to educate myself and see that it works (so I am doing things like tcpdump before and after i turn on encryption).

Originally, I thought I could just take...

/usr/samples/snmpdv3/snmpdv3.conf

and be up and running without having to learn the details of the version 3 protocol and implement whatever level of security I want. I suppose if you are an expert in SNMP and have been keeping up the RFC's the sample snmpdv3.conf file makes sense.

I saw a few samples on the web but most seem to still configure the snmpdv3.conf at the lowest level of security (community string).

I think it's time for administrators to re-consider snmp again since it addresses traditional security issues; more importantly, it can save money. The configuration is a small challenge. Administrators--including me--need to invest the time in learning and matching the protocol to the level of security they need.

I will post my results. Thanks for the interest.
