A network engineer is now in charge of all SNMP management in the organization. The engineer must use a SNMP version that does not utilize plaintext data. Which of the following is the minimum version of SNMP that supports this requirement?
SNMPv3 is the version of the Simple Network Management Protocol that introduces security enhancements, including message integrity, authentication, and encryption. Unlike previous versions (v1 and v2c), SNMPv3 supports encrypted communication, ensuring that data is not transmitted in plaintext. This provides confidentiality and protects against eavesdropping and unauthorized access.References: CompTIA Network+ study materials.
