Hi I-Wen,
The trap sender is authoritative. Thus, the senders engineID is used to
authenticate the trap.
According to the SNMPv3 standad, you cannot send SNMPv3 notifications
with the same USM
with the same securityName but different authentication passphrases (keys).
Best regards,
Frank

Hi,
I added 2 Usm users with same security name, different engine ids, and
authentications. While trying to send the traps, I received following error
messages
org.snmp4j.security.USM - USM.getUser - User 'xxxxxx' unknown
org.snmp4j.security.USM - Security name not found for engineID=...
Message processing model 3 returned error: Unknown security name
Look like the localEngineID is used when the codes try to find the security
name. I traced into the MPv3.java program and found following:
if (scopedPDU.isConfirmedPdu()) {
flags |= MPv3_REPORTABLE_FLAG;
}
else {
secEngineID = localEngineID;
}
As trap is not a confirmed pdu, the secEngineID is set to localEngineID..
Please feel free to correct me if my understanding of the code is wrong.
Would you please share your thoughts on what I may do wrong or missed?
Thanks,
I-Wen
