Hi Everyone,

For a test setup I need the set passwords for SNMPv3 auth and priv with
a characters length < 8.
Actually in version 1.0.0 , there is a length check which prevents this.
My question: Is there a possibility to avoid this check reps. to disable
it?

As I remember, a few versions ago, when SNMPv3 configuration was done
via config file, I set passwords with length < 8 and it worked fine.
For testing purpose the length check should basically be disabled.

Thanks
Markus
