• SNMPv3 on Linux with net-snmp: a SHA/AES user with the priv security level, communities retired

  net-snmp's snmpd supports SNMPv3's User-based Security Model with per-user authentication and encryption, configured with createUser and checked with the priv security level on rouser/rwuser. Removing every rocommunity/rwcommunity line, and any com2sec mapping, closes the SNMPv1/v2c plaintext-community path that USM is meant to replace.
