If that's available, then configure will pick this up and enable full authentication/privacy automatically. > For that I found a MACRO: "NETSNMP_USE_INTERNAL_MD5". > What does mean : This is an internal token which indicates that the OpenSSL library was *not* present. In this case, all privacy support is omitted, and the only authentication support will be MD5, which is shipped as part of the Net-SNMP library. If OpenSSL isn't found, the library uses the internal MD5 routines. If OpenSSL *is* found, the library uses that instead. > Does it necessary to define the above macro to support the AUTH feature ? No. Don't touch this. > or net-snmp support the auth feature by default Yes > and the above Macro give some additional feature ? It's actually an indication of *reduced* functionality. See above.
