In order to duplicate how things get setup when you set a 'monitor' through the config, you have to do the same snmpset command with version 3 snmp commands and with at least authNoPriv. This is if you want to duplicate what happens internally when the 'monitor' option is used in the config. There may be a way to do this using a version lower than 3. I don't know. I got it to work with version 3 and at least authNoPriv. Thanks for the reply though. For a while there I didn't think I was going to get anything. It is nice to have the help.
