Issue/Introduction

VMware require AES 192Bit encryption with MD5 on SNMPv3 to support Velo devices

Environment

Spectrum 21.X , 22.X

Resolution

DX NetOps Spectrum supports "AES128 and AES256" encryption algorithms for privacy.

As Spectrum already supports the more secure algorithm AES256,it is recommended to use AES256 support for Velo.

Additional Information

There are no enhancements planned for support of AES192 bit encryption in future releases as of now.
