You can convert a device from v1 polling to v3 polling by editing Community_Name and CommunityNameForSNMPSets, you just have to format the credentials correctly. The format is #v3/<secLevel>:<optional flags><authString>:<optional flags><privString>/<username> secLevel is P for authPriv, A for authNoPriv, and N for noAuthNoPriv optional flags let you specify non-default auth or priv protocols, SHA^ or 3DES^ (or MD5^ and DES^ if you changed the default protocols in .vnmrc) the authString, privString, and username are all from your credential set. so for example, #v3/P:thisismyauthpassword:thisismyprivpassword/someuser or #v3/A:SHA^thisisadifferentauthpassword/otheruser You can also add a context string before the username: /<context>/<username> See Spectrum Modeling IT Infrastructure Admin (9.2.1 docs, 5167 in older docs) for many examples.
