usmUserPrivProtocol

An indication of whether messages sent on behalf of
this user to/from the SNMP engine identified by
usmUserEngineID, can be protected from disclosure,
and if so, the type of privacy protocol which is used.
              
An instance of this object is created concurrently
with the creation of any other object instance for
the same user (i.e., as part of the processing of
the set operation which creates the first object
instance in the same conceptual row).
              
If an initial set operation (i.e. at row creation time)
tries to set a value for an unknown or unsupported
protocol, then a 'wrongValue' error must be returned.
              
The value will be overwritten/set when a set operation
is performed on the corresponding instance of
usmUserCloneFrom.
              
Once instantiated, the value of such an instance of
this object can only be changed via a set operation to
the value of the usmNoPrivProtocol.
              
If a set operation tries to change the value of an
existing instance of this object to any value other
than usmNoPrivProtocol, then an 'inconsistentValue'
error must be returned.
              
Note that if any privacy protocol is used, then you
must also use an authentication protocol. In other
words, if usmUserPrivProtocol is set to anything else
than usmNoPrivProtocol, then the corresponding instance
of usmUserAuthProtocol cannot have a value of
              
usmNoAuthProtocol. If it does, then an
'inconsistentValue' error must be returned.
