Cause

The settings in the SNMP v3 profile may be incorrect

Resolution

See if you can get a walk of the device, with a 3rd party tool, using the information from the SNMP v3 profile that you had created (using sapwalk2, in this case)

example:

sapwalk -i 192.168.1.12 -v v3 -s 1.3.6.1.2.1.16 -n 2 -u xxxxxx -xt SHA -xa xxxxxx -xp xxxxxx -p 161 -l AP

Error: Received unexpected Report PDU[1.3.6.1.6.3.15.1.1.5.0(usmStatsWrongDigests.0)]. walk stopped
