Error 31218 - SNMPv3 - Wrong Digests - The authentication digest did not match to the expected result, possible incorrect key/password.

Hi All,

We are using SNMPv3 to pool the hardware details, all our network device are using the same snmp details, however some device failed to pool the info.

And this is the error we see on Solarwinds, we tried different snmp password/credential but still the same issue.

"Hardware polling failed: Error 31218 - SNMPv3 - Wrong Digests - The authentication digest did not match to the expected result, possible incorrect key/password"

Any idea what could be the issue.

If you're using the same credential sets on the Solarwinds side, I'd look at the SNMPv3 config on the individual device with a fine-toothed comb. I've seen this when devices configured remotely just missed a keystroke during the input and dropped a character from the key.

I did that already, its just copy and paste from one device to another.

Is your IOS the same across the board? I remember seeing a weird copy and paste issue or bug Cisco put out for some 9300 series models awhile ago. They pushed some updates or something to fix it.

I understand you did a copy and paste, but I would delete and re-add node hand jamming SNMPv3 .

Have you looked at this link.

I've used this to check OID and other stuff.
