Hi, I have problems using SHA in SNMPv3 with NET-SNMP. Well, I'll start to explain how the setup is and what I did so far.
On a server there is the snmpd SNMP agent demon running. It uses NET-SNMP Version 5.4.3. To use authentication I added a user in the share/snmp/snmp.conf file. The entry looks like this: rouser myuser auth system First I tried the MD5 authentication so I added a line in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf like this (before I did so, I stopped the agent): createUser myuser MD5 mypasswd That is the only user that I added so far. There is no other user entry. On a client (different machine) I do an snmpget request: snmpget -v 3 -u myuser -a MD5 -A mypasswd -l authNoPriv myserver system.sysUpTime.0 And get the following result: DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (1313) 0:00:13.13 So the MD5 authentication seems to work properly. Now I tried the same with SHA. I stopped snmpd on the server side, delete the the old (and only) user (myuser) with MD5 authentication in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf. Than I added the following line: createUser myuser SHA mypasswd After restart of snmpd the user is added in the snmpd.conf file. usmUser 1 3 0x80001f88804460fc1891dc034c 0x6d626179657200 0x6d626179657200 NULL .1.3.6.1.6.3.10.1.1.2 0xdacc3c017741c212010d609ff03bafb5 .1.3.6.1.6.3.10.1.2.1 "" "" Then I do a new request on the client side. snmpget -v 3 -u myuser -a SHA -A mypasswd -l authNoPriv myserver system.sysUpTime.0 And now I get an error message: snmpget: Authentication failure (incorrect password, community or key) (Sub-id not found: (top) -> system) Somehow SHA doesn't work + now the OID is not found. Did I miss something? Help is much appreciated.
