Use this command to create a new user by cloning an existing one. After you have successfully cloned the new user, you can modify its parameters using the following command:
configure snmpv3 add user [[hex hex_user_name] |user_name] {authentication [md5 | sha] [hexhex_auth_password |auth_password]} {privacy {des | 3des | aes {128 | 192 | 256}} [[hexhex_priv_password] | priv_password]} }{volatile}Users cloned from the default users will have the storage type of non-volatile. The default names are: admin, initial, initialmd5, initialsha, initialmd5Priv, initialshaPriv.
The following command creates a user cloneMD5 with same properties as the default user initalmd5. All authorization and privacy keys will initially be the same as with the default user initialmd5.
configure snmpv3 add user cloneMD5 clone-from initialmd5
The following command adds a remote user named nmsuser2 belonging to the SNMP engine with engine-id 11:22:33 by cloning another remote user named nmsuser1 belonging to the SNMP engine with engine id AA:BB::CC:
conf snmpv3 add user nmsuser2 engine-id 11:22:33 clone-from nmsuser1 engine-id AA:BB:CC
