The Net-SNMP utility snmpusm is used to maintain SNMPv3 users. This utility can
be very useful when it comes to managing and creating users on the fly,Note
that to use this command, your SNMPv3 user must have write access to the
usmUserTable in the agent,
snmpd.conf
snmpd.conf file:
rwuser user1 auth system
rwuser user1 auth

Hi Anish,
Thanks for the reply.
My requirement is to create SNMPv3 users when ever needed, and not just at the
Agent start up.
Also if I am creating a user using SNMPUSM command, I am able to create, but
they are not persistent across a Agent restart.
Once i created a user using SNMPUSM I have tried to send signal -HUP to snmpd
process to see if the new user is getting updated in the persistent snmpd.conf
file, but it was not updating.
Any idea how to make the users created by SNMPUSM copied to persistent
snmpd.conf file, so that it will be persistent across the Agent restart.
I am thinking about this option of using SNMPUSM as it doesnot require restart
of the Agent process.
Thanks and regards
S Sarath

Create a user/Snmv3 session when your Agent starts,

Subject: which is better way to create SNMPv3 users
Hello,
Could you please tell which is better way to create a SNMPv3 user?
1. creating the user using SNMPUSM command, which doesnot involve restart of
snmp agent process. But for this we need to maintain one sample user based on
which we need to create the new users.
2. creating by directly editing the persistent snmpd.conf file using
"createUser". Here restart of the snmp agent process is necessary, but no need
to maintain any extra users for making other user configurations.
thanks and regards
