Re: snmp v3 adding user

Hi Pranesh,

User either net-snmp-create-v3-user or 'createUser' entry to create snmpv3
user , but not both I guess.

Are you following below steps
1. stop snmpd
2. add createUser entry in /var/lib/net-snmp/snmpd.conf and rwuser/rouser
entry in custom snmpd.conf
3. start snmpd
start snmpd in debug mode to check more details.

Thanks ,
Pushpa.T
