Cfgmaker is not using snmpv3 because it cannot connect.  The reason for this
is that it does not have working credentials.

If you specify a contextengineid, then this is used in combination with the
supplied authpassword.  If you do not, then the authpassword is assumed to
already be hashed with the contextengineid (see the snmpkey utility for how
to make these).  So -- either give the contextengineid, or use snmpkey to
convert the password into a hash.

You can also use --snmp-options=:::::3 to force SNMPv3, though the above
requirement still stands.
