Hi,

Thank you for your interest in our product.

As per Snmp Standard, Authoritative Engine ID and Context EngineID are not same. But in our framework we do have both as same. And changing the context engineID of the agent is presently not supported.

But the informs sent from the agent will have the context engineID value as same as the manager's authoritative engineID (to which the inform is actually sent).

If you want to change the context engineID in the requests sent to the agents from our MibBrowser tool, you can do it as follows,
In our product i.e Agent Toolkit Java Edition you can change the Context Engine Id in the MibBrowser tool itself.The tool is present in the below directory
<ATK_HOME/AdventNet/JavaAgent/bin/MibBrowser(.bat/.sh)

Go to settings menu (i.e where you will be adding the Users for Snmpv3 )there will be option ContextEngine ID you can change the value for specific user and proceed.

Hope this helps,Please get back to us for further clarifications.

Regards,
Bharatha Selvan
