[SNMP4J] Trap Configuration

[Jochen Katz]

Hi,

>>I have a general snmpv3 trap configuration question. If the snmp agent
>>uses a USM record with certain privacy and authentication protocol
>>setting, should the snmp client configure the same user with the same
>>privacy and authentication protocol settings in order to receive traps
>>from that user?

yes, username, authProtocol, privProtocol, and pass phrases must match 
on agent and manager.

>> Will a trap be rejected if the sender usm user and
>>receiver usm user have different configuration? 

If you have different configurations, you wil get reports (user unknown, 
decryption error,...) from the agent.
