Does PI 2.1 support SNMPv3 privacy up through AES-256?

We have recently set up Prime Infrastructure 2.1 and I’m adding switches. Does PI 2.1 support SNMPv3 privacy up through AES-256?

Hi,

Prime Infrastructure 2.1 supports SNMPv3 discovery for devices. The SNMP V3 modes are:

AuthPriv—Provides authentication based on the HMAC-MD5 or HMAC-SHA algorithms. Provides DES 56-bit encryption in addition to authentication based on the CBC-DES (DES-56) standard.

AuthNoPriv—Provides authentication based on the HMAC-MD5 or HMAC-SHA algorithms.

NoAuthNoPriv—Uses a username match for authentication.

PrivType—Protocol used to secure the SNMP authentication request.

PrivPassword—Prefixed privacy passphrase for the SNMPv3 user.
