access, and all other accounts have Read Only access.

account always has 'Read/Write' access, and all other accounts have 'Read

Authentication Protocol Specify the SNMPv3 Authentication Protocol setting for the selected user
account. The valid Authentication Protocols are None, MD5 or SHA. If you
select None, the user will be unable to access the SNMP data from an SNMP

SNMPv3 authentication password, and you must therefore specify a
password, and it must be eight characters long.

The valid Encryption Protocols are None or DES. If you select the DES Protocol

and Encryption Key.
