Thanks for the reply Wes.

I think our main concern was the possibility of memory leaks. Being an
embedded product, it's not simply a case of killing the process and
restarting it so while we want to offer the flexibility of updating
ip-based, mac-based, and text-string based SnmpEngineIDs, we also want
the unit not to be rebooted unless absolutely necessary. If I understand
it correctly, we should be able to destroy all the vacm and usm entries
and reload them with default users. Hopefully the pain of re-entering
user information will discourage people from changing the SnmpEngineID
on a regular basis.

Regards,
Adam

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
