[SNMP4J] Is SHA-2 supported?

Hi,

You can use only certain authentication protocols. However,
if you use (implement) a non-standard protocol for SNMPv3,
then you will have serious interoperability problems.
AFAIK, SHA-2 has not been yet defined for SNMPv3 by the
IETF.

If you want (very) secure authentication and a minimal interoperability,
then you can use TLS for SNMPv3.

Best regards,
Frank
