SNMP v3 config

what are the absolute minimums to get v3 to function?

I've been trying to get v3 to work between 2620 and Cisco Works. I've got the following configured, but CW keeps telling me incorrect user/pass or auth type.

snmp-server engineID local xxxxxxxx

snmp-server group aaaaa v3 priv write aaaaa access 50

snmp-server user vinni aaaaa v3 auth md5 xxxxxxxxx

Try the following and see if it makes any difference:

snmp-server group aaaaa v3 auth

snmp-server user vinni aaaaa v3 auth md5 xxxxxxx

I think that you need to set the remote engine id as well.

This is my LMS 2.5 config that I know works:

!

snmp-server engineID local 0000000001

snmp-server engineID remote XX.XX.XX.XX 0000000001

!

snmp-server group GROUPNAME v3 auth

snmp-server user USER GROUPNAME v3 auth md5 PASSWORD

!

is it a requirement to identify the remote 'host/server' that will be participating in v3?
