Version	Version of the SNMP standard. The SL500 library supports:
	■ SNMPv2c of the simple network management protocol for
	machine status queries. With this version, any information
	transmitted is not secure.
	■ SNMPv3 of the simple network management protocol is
	reserved for proprietary information. Because this version
	supports encryption and stronger user identification it is
	the preferred protocol for proprietary data.
Community (v2c	Applications use community strings for access control. The
only)	manager includes the community string in its SNMP
	messages to an agent. The agent consequently can accept or
	reject the operation. This can be a maximum of 31
	alphanumeric characters.

only)
Auth (v3 only)	Authentication protocol type (MD5 or SHA) string for users

only)
Priv (v3 only)	Privacy protocol type (DES or AES): The other two primary
	SNMPv3 security protocols are designed to protect
