We have a need to separate out the persistent data in snmpd.conf (/var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf)

 

We would like to separate the V3 username info (keys and whatnot) out from the MIB data (psyslocation, psyscontact, etc).

 

Is there a mechanism in place to do this already? 

 

Would it be easier to modify the user/pass information routines, or the MIB update routines?

 

I would think that stripping out the user/pass information would cause less issues in the future, because it is more likely that a MIB entry will be added, then will a new method to get user/pass information.

Is this correct?

 

Could it be as simple as adding a #define for a different filename?
