Interface SnmpSecurityManager

public interface SnmpSecurityManager

The SnmpSecurityManager interface defines methods for registering and unregistering Security Models with jSNMP. When the jSNMP service is started (with the first call to SnmpLocalInterfaces.getService()), both the CSM and USM Security Models are registered with the security manager, so there is no need to register them. Any new Security Models, however, must be registered with the service in order to be used.

Each security model must have a unique Security Model ID. If not unique, the registration will fail.
