Determine the engineID of the destination system (10.4.120.141),
then add a line
createUser -e 0x010203040506 netAdmin MD5 netadminpassword DES
to the persistent snmpd.conf file
(where 0x010203040506 is replaced by the appropriate engineID).
When you restart the agent, this will be replaced by an equivalent usmUser line,
with a localized authentication key.
