A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : External User Security Model (EUSM) for version 3 of the
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMPv3)
Author(s) : K. Narayan, et al.
Filename : draft-kaushik-snmp-external-usm-01.txt
Pages : 23
Date : 2005-2-8
SNMPv3 provides a framework for user identity based authentication,
privacy and granular access control. SNMPv3 aids secure manageability
and overcomes one of major drawbacks in previous versions of the SNMP
standard. There has been a significant lack of uptake for deployment
of SNMPv3, and a number of organizations are still using
SNMPv1/SNMPv2c. This is because SNMPv3 does not integrate well with
administrative security schemes defined for existing management
interfaces like the device command line interfaces. We believe this
is because the SNMPv3 standard does not address the issue of
management and distribution of the keying material for SNMP.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-kaushik-snmp-external-usm-01.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
