account and AAA configuration.

Authentication
Protocol
Select an authentication algorithm. MD5 (Message Digest 5) and SHA
(Secure Hash Algorithm) are hash algorithms used to authenticate SNMP
data. SHA authentication is generally considered stronger than MD5, but
is slower.
Privacy
Protocol
Specify the encryption method for SNMP communication with this user.
You can choose one of the following:
• None - Do not implement encryption for encrypting SNMP packets.
• DES - Data Encryption Standard is a widely used (but breakable)
method of data encryption. It applies a 56-bit key to each 64-bit block
of data.
• AES - Advanced Encryption Standard is another method for data
encryption that also uses a secret key. AES applies a 128-bit key to
128-bit blocks of data.
