Thanks?
This can destroy the user certainly.
However I still have a question regarding the user type being set to
NONVOLATILE once the user is created. If the snmpd is restarted, a call to
snmp_shutdown() will actually save the user into the permanent location, e.g.
into snmpd.conf. After the user is deleted, e.g. via a user command, as this
user is still persistent in the config file, I can still retrieve the deleted
user via the usmUserTable if snmpwalk is on the usmUserSecurityName MIB
variable.
Best Regards.
