So I'm currently assisting an MSP with onboarding a new client of theirs and the direction I've been given is to enable SNMPv3 on their Cisco gear and let them know the community string. They're adamant that we use SNMPv3 and all I need to give them is the community string.
Now, I haven't done a ton of SNMP setups in my short networking career but I was under the impression SNMPv3 did away with community strings in favour of username/password and an encryption key. Am I wrong or are they getting mixed up with their SNMP versions?
