Anyone have documentation on how to configure SNMPv3 for Windows and Linux machines

Hello

I need to monitor Windows and Linux instances using SNMPv3, I'm trying to find a guide to configure on the host end but not having much luck.

Expanding on this, Microsoft has said they will not be updating their built in SNMP client, since like 2012.  So to do windows via SNMP you would need to install a 3rd party tool, or you can install the SolarWinds agent on your hosts as it uses encryption by default.
