The RFCs for SNMP only specify DES and CFB-AES-128.  So yes, that's what
we use.

It's possible to implement other ciphers, and even use ones defined in
non-standards places (eg, there is a definition for 3DES that exists
outside the IETF).  But currently, we only ship code for supporting the
two standards based ones.
