feature can be understood as a global try-

list. Any time HP Web Jetadmin encounters
a device with a credentials set, it first looks into the Credentials Store. If nothing is found in the Store,
it attempts whatever the administrator has configured within the global feature. The global feature is
not restricted to SNMPv3 credentials. Any of the other credential types like SNMP Community Names
or File System Password can be added.
NOTE HP Web Jetadmin discoveries are slowed when many credentials are added to the Global
SNMPv3 Credentials feature. For each device that lacks credentials in the Credentials Store,
HP Web Jetadmin must go through each global value until it either finds a working credential
or exhausts the list.

managing SNMPv3 from both interfaces on the same
device or even within the same fleet is not recommended.
When the SNMPv3 credential is configured from within HP Web Jetadmin, the user adds a user
identity and two passphrases to the interface. The passphrases are designed with human usability in
mind and can be simple, easy to remember strings of letters and/or numbers. (The example given on
page 3 was “oncewasasmallcat”.) When HP Web Jetadmin sets up the device for SNMPv3 security,
it transposes that phrase into a hex key using a secure hash technique of MD5 or DES, depending on
the phrase. This is done in order to make it nearly impossible to derive the user passphrases from
network utilities. So, while HP Web Jetadmin allows the
user to work with friendly passphrases, the SNMPv3
