Id Property

Description

Gets or sets the engine Id (byte array) that identifies the authoritative engine.

Property type

Read-write property

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Property Id As Variant

Return Value

Byte array.

Remarks

The EngineId should be set to a contextually unique value that positively identifies the specific SNMPv3 entity.

The EngineId of a remote engine is updated during the discovery process in Manager.EngineCache. A special case is the authentication and decryption of traps from agents that have not been queried, so their EngineId and User info is not known. In this case a User must be initialized with the requisite credentials and optionally the remote engine's Id, and added to Manager.TrapUsers.
