SPECIFYING A
REMOTE ENGINE ID
Use the Administration > SNMP (Configure Engine - Add Remote Engine)
page to configure a engine ID for a remote management station. To allow
management access from an SNMPv3 user on a remote device, you must
first specify the engine identifier for the SNMP agent on the remote device
where the user resides. The remote engine ID is used to compute the
security digest for authentication and encryption of packets passed
between the switch and a user on the remote host.
