Hi Anish,

I am able to create new users using SNMPUSM, but the newly created users are 
not persistent. 
That is, if the snmp agent is restarted the users created using SNMPUSM are not 
there. 
Also the persistent snmpd.conf file is not getting updated with the users 
created SNMPUSM, even after giving -HUP signal to snmp agent process (snmpd).

Could you please suggest a way to have these users created with SNMPUSM be 
persistent?

Thanks and regards
S Sarath Chandra Azad

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,

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
S Sarath
