SnmpUsmAuthAlgorithm, SnmpUsmPrivAlgorithm

All Known Implementing Classes:

SnmpUsmDesAlgorithm, SnmpUsmHmacAlgorithm, SnmpUsmHmacMd5, SnmpUsmHmacSha

public interface SnmpUsmAlgorithm

User based Security Model algorithm. Every algorithm used in the context of Usm must implement this interface. If you want to integrate your own algorithm, you must implement this interface.

Algorithm are uniquely identified by a name.

Since:

Java DMK 5.1

Method Summary

String	getAlgorithm() Gets the unique algorithm name.
int	getDeltaSize() Gets the delta used for key change algorithm (see RFC 2574).
String	getOid() Gets the unique algorithm OID.
