The Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3) provides user authentication and data encryption to manage network devices securely.

   Option	Description
   SNMP v1/v2c read-write access	The print server uses version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol. You can use all of your machine's applications in this mode. However, it is not secure since it will not authenticate the user, and data will not be encrypted.
   SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access	The print server uses the read-write access of version 3 and the read-only access of version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol. When you use the SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access mode, some of your machine's applications that access the print server do not work correctly since they authorize the read-only access of version 1 and version 2c. If you want to use all applications, we recommend using the SNMP v1/v2c read-write access mode.
   SNMPv3 read-write access	The print server uses version 3 of the SNMP protocol. If you want to manage the print server securely, use this mode. When you use the SNMPv3 read-write access mode, note the following:   Except for BRAdmin Professional, all applications that use SNMPv1/v2c will be restricted. To allow the use of SNMPv1/v2c applications, use the SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access or SNMP v1/v2c read-write access mode.
