For example, the if current running SNMP agent is the encrypted snmpdv3 agent, the actual SNMP agent executable which is running on the machine is "/usr/sbin/snmpdv3e". The symblic links on the machine are:
If a user chooses to switch to the non-encrypted snmpdv3 agent, after user runs the /usr/sbin/snmpv3_ssw command with the -n option, the acutal snmp agent which is running on the machine "/usr/sbin/snmpdv3ne". The symbolic links on the machine will be changed to:
| -e | Switch to the encrypted version of snmpdv3 agent. |
| -n | Switch to the non-encrypted version of snmpdv3 agent. |
| -1 | Switch to the snmpdv1 agent. |
/usr/sbin/snmp3_ssw -e
